Message in the teacup

in Hive Collectors2 days ago

There are months that fly by too quickly. For example, February is one of those; we barely get used to feeling like we are in that month, and it is already March.

Maybe it is just a perception, that it seems to us that time generally passes quickly, but facts are facts. Today is the first day of March and that means... a new monthly topic for collectors. Since these topics started, every month a new theme, I have only missed one. That was the month when we started moving and I simply couldn't be behind the screen (October 2024). I realized that fact when I made a collection of monthly theme posts. You will be able to see that collection today. 😁

But before that, I am bringing here some words and phrases; if you want, please take a seat, get a cup of tea and enjoy the aroma of your beverage. Mmmmm, my one was indeed tasty, one of my favourite tea brands... Yogi Tea. Oh, no, this is not a paid advertisement for Yogi Tea 😂 but it happens that I have a collection connected to this brand. They pay attention to your well-being; it is organic tea that comes in tea filter bags and sends you a message in each teacup.

My last Yogi Tea box was a gift for Christmas, of course, that is why you see its flavour - Christmas Tea... I tried not to consume all of them during the time around Christmas, to enjoy the taste of this tea for a longer time, in other months too.

The peculiarity of these filter bags (that are inside the paper envelopes) is that the little paper labels at the end of the thin string bring a message, each of them different. They were just too cool so I started collecting the little papers with the phrases.

I kept around thirty of these messages, and some of my favourites say that Life is a gift... Say what you mean, mean what you say... Kindness is the essence of life... Have you hugged your soul today?... It is good to have micro and macro conscience at the same time... This body needs to be understood to be taken care of... Give happiness and you will end up happy...

I know it is not fair to put this as the monthly topic... as maybe you don't like this tea brand, or you don't have access to it, or you simply don't like tea, or there are no little papers with messages in your tea filter bags... However, if you have a collection of phrases (in whatever form they come) or motivational messages, please share them with us in March so they reach us too. But, don't worry if you can't find any... maybe you would like to bring a collection of an item that was already announced as a monthly theme in the previous months but you missed it for some reason... what do you think? Sometimes it is good to leave space for a free choice or simply choose a theme from the past you haven't heard about on time. This is the collection of monthly themes you are invited to choose from, in case you don't like the message idea but want to bring your contribution in March. 😇

P.S. As I am not at home this weekend but I didn't want to skip another month, I took the photos for this post while I was still at home. The text was written in the hotel room... So, we should now go out and see the historical part of the city centre and a museum but it is raining. And it is fine, I can have a collection of raindrops on my photos or a collection of umbrellas 🌂 - maybe it can be the topic for some of the next months? 😂

Amazing!! I love this topic :) :)

Thank you, I hope to see your collection @delilhavores 😉🍀

That tea bag reminds me of this marketing tricks used by candies company and I used to love them. Back in my childhood, I also used to collect t-shirts with funny phrases. I don't think I have a lot of them now as they are always donated.

Most of my collection phrases I have now are in my phone but I have this particular notebook that has quotes from books I've read :D I don't think they qualify though.

A notebook that has quotes 🤩 - why it wouldn't qualify? I think it would work out well ;))

Realmente este año va demasiado rápido. Lindo tema para este mes, parece increíble que lleves más de 1 año con esta excelente iniciativa 💚. Qué la lluvia no impida esa visita!! Un abrazo, que termine bien el sábado y que el domingo sea aún mejor ☀️🌈🤗

Yes, already more than a year with monthly themes 😲
Thank you, the rain didn't stop us, we had our city visits and a concert, but I think I caught a cold 😬

...but I think I caught a cold 😬

I'm so sorry, I hope you get better soon. Abrazo sanador 🤗

Ah! I thought this month's collection was going to be teabags, I got loads at home.

Those little tags are such a good idea, I've never seen them before.

Teabags - why not? They could fit, like a bit modified theme but would be cool!! 😎 Let them come to the collectors corner!

I would also ask for one cup of tea now 🙏, too much rain and cold yesterday 🤐

Here's your tea ma'am, would you like a piece of cake with it?

Thank you very much ☺️
This time just tea; the cake... can be some apfelstrudel in two months ;)

Good afternoon @mipiano, I believe this is my first appearance in this community. I don't think I have any collection of motivational phrases, but I'm going to take a look at some of the previous initiatives.

Happy weekend.


Take your time and browse among the previous topics, maybe you have more than one collection to share with us, if you like 😉Then, welcome to the community @enraizar 😇

Thank you very much for this welcome, @mipiano to the community. I'm sure I'll find a collection somewhere in that long list of songs. It's impossible not to... the list is huge. 😄

Happy Sunday, @mipiano.

I practically don't drink tea, just some citric or red tea... but the idea of motivational phrases fascinates me... it can be written... I'll figure out how to present it .... think, think, think .... what a great idea!!!! I love it! It goes with me!🤗

I am sure you will find the way to make your contribution :))) ✨️

I have loved the motivational phases .... for many years!

I am so ashamed I missed such a great topic...

Don't be ashamed, just choose the topics you like, you are more than welcome to participate 😊

I didn't call last month, I don't have a collection of postage stamps.
But as for the tea bags, I collected them in whatever hotel I stayed in, so they piled up...
Just to remember where I got it and saved it. These of yours, with the messages on the pouch, are phenomenal.

I am looking forward to seeing your teabag collection 😇, it seems that you and @livinguktaiwan like this beverage ☕️ :))

In her name there are two letters that represent the country where tea is an obligatory drink 🙂

My time to share my mugs has come haha I don't drink tea, my mom does, but none of them have messages, I don't have motivational messages in other formats either, so, mugs, here I come 😂

Yay, Buho-mugs will come 👏👏👏
No worries if no message on the mugs, though I am surprised that Buhito didn't use his feathers to write something on them 😜

Greetings @mipiano, we have several different teas but no any message coming with them. But I am very impressed with how you collected those tiny papers with very valuable messages. Very nice Looking forward to seeing entries. :) Have a nice Sunday. :)


It can be also seen as a silly thing to keep those little messages 😂 but I am glad I can reread them now. If you want, you can also go with a free or modified topic, with teas 🍵
Greetings 💫Hi there @hindavi 😊

I will find some but quite busy here. :)
