Tea and Chit Chat

I dreamt of Mama and Yiaya walking together in a beautiful park and they came upon a table set up below a Willow tree, with this beautiful Tea Service awaiting them. They sat down, poured for each other and drank. Mama then said something in Tagalog that I didn't understand and yet Yiaya giggled, responded in Greek and they both laughed.

I understand the dream's origin, Nelly and I having done the very thing I described just last week. It was just incredibly comforting for me to see our Grandmothers together, keeping each other company, chit chatting over tea and giggling all the while as they were known to do in life. And the fact that they were able to communicate in their native languages, foreign to the other, just showed me how much a connection can transcend languages in our hearts...
