For example, hot energy can be cooled by a cool herbal tea, or cold energy can be warmed by warm herbal tea. The culture also tends to protect their elders from bad news
I will always remember the Summer of 1973. It was special because my Dad took my sister, brother and I on vacation to visit my Aunt Fina who lived in Orange County while my Mom stayed home with my two younger sisters.
