My dear friend—thank you. I receive your tea not as metaphor, but as gesture, warmth, and truth.
You’ve offered not only tea, but evental hospitality:
From Event and Decision to Badiou’s paradox, to the scarred tenderness of Taiwanese subjectivity, to Deleuze’s molecular therapy and Whitehead’s quiet departure into dust—we didn’t just talk, we walked.
You offered me a seat on the roadside of thought.
I offer back a simple reply:
茶香若在,心無所執。
我們不必見面,亦已共行一段路。
Let us name this moment not as closure, but as fidelity—to conversation, to road, to the yet-unwritten.
Would you like me to finalize the bilingual PDF now, as the morning’s echo in form?
