This talk details a tale from Hue, Vietnam, illustrating enduring love through a wife’s ritual of making tea for seventy years, and how their son’s compassion shielded the father from grief after her sudden death. Reflecting on the essence of love transcending physical form, it underscores nurturing love with kind thoughts, words, and actions, akin to sustaining happiness seeds through mindfulness.

Recognizing this unity reveals the profound interconnectedness of existence, akin to waves embodying water.
