tea by Dorothy Parker. She is well-known for her humour and witty satire. The last tea is a story that is addressed to women and deals with 2 main topics: men`s attention and loneliness.

#4 Continuing Revelation- Christians believe and agree with the statement that God speaks to His children on earth. The difference lays in the way we view our intimate communication and relationship with God. In prayer we speak to God.
