Sweet Tea

 

I've recently have started drinking sweet tea again. It's been a long time. I used to drink it before I was an active member of the LDS church. Now
that I'm drinking it again I feel guilty doing so in front of my family, like I"m doing something so wrong. How could drinking sweet tea possibly be wrong in God's mind or commandments? I know the LDS church just says it's about obedience and it's okay not to question it. But really? Is that not okay to question? Has my life come down to having to justify sweet tea whether or not it pertains to the salvation of my soul or determine where I will be in the after life? Okay so I live in the here and now. That doesn't mean I live for pleasure, but it also doesn't mean I have to deprive myself from simple and non destructive things to my body and mind. Perhaps the amount of caffeine intake should be monitored and not consumed too much. I typically only drink water and orange juice, occasionally a Jamaican ginger ale.
