🪴☕🤎👋
Anak,
I seldom drink coffee.
It usually gives me palpitations.
And if I take it late in the day,
I end up awake until the wee hours of the morning.
So I normally avoid it.
But today was different.
I was meeting a very special friend
that I had not seen for many years.
And when the conversation was flowing so beautifully,
there was really no reason to rush out of the restaurant.
So I ordered a cappuccino.
Just to stay a little longer.
The coffee was nicely prepared.
But more than that,
the conversation was remarkable.
Meaningful.
Productive.
Full of stories from the many years in between.
Strangely enough,
the coffee did not give me the usual palpitations.
Maybe it was the slower pace.
Maybe it was the laughter.
Maybe it was simply the joy of reconnecting.
Sometimes, it is not the coffee
that keeps us awake.
It is the people we share it with
that make the moment memorable.
Anak,
Life is busy.
Schedules are tight.
But every now and then,
a quiet conversation over a simple cup of coffee
can refresh more than just the body.
It refreshes the soul.
Tell me…
When was the last time a simple conversation
turned into a moment you did not want to end? ☕💛
