Chai is the 20 minutes a day you sit somewhere quiet, away from the routine. Pour hot water over the leaves and watch the spices swirl as a sweet, warm aroma rises. Close your eyes, breathe it in, and let the day get small. Then add a splash of milk and watch the clouds form. Take a sip. Life is good.
