A particular ritual of ours is the reason why most of us enjoy our coffee to the climax. Some people like to savor it slowly, having each taste stay in their mouth for a long time. Some love to gulp down their coffee at a stretch because they love it hot and wouldn鈥檛 want it to cold down by taking it bit by bit.
I know of someone who enjoys her coffee by being alone. She says that when she is having her coffee alone she feels at peace. There are people who their ways of enjoying their coffee by going out with friends and having a chat as they take their coffee and have a good time. Well, my friend happens to be someone with a different mindset. She likened her coffee to that of yoga, she says she enjoys her coffee when she is seated, staring into space with zero distractions. To her taking her coffee alone is a mechanism for relaxing her brain cells that way she enjoys it so nicely.
Before now, I always look for ways to enjoy my coffee. I would go to a coffee shop that doesn鈥檛 only sell coffee but also some other things here in my part of the country with a friend and see if I will enjoy having the coffee while I have conversations and catch up on good times with my friends, but then I realize that I never enjoy my coffee as I do not have the time to feel the taste while I talk. Most times I get carried away then I end up not enjoying my coffee.
It took me a while to realize that I enjoy my coffee properly when I am reading alone. I love reading books and I love reading books that I could feel the pages and flip through. I love having the hard copy of my novels, it makes me feel good when I go through the pages. Reading is something I love doing and then I found out that combining it with my coffee is a cloud 9 feeling.
As I flip through the pages of my book, and take a sip of my coffee, with the taste on my tongue and the feeling it sends down to my body, I am made to understand that this combination is a match made in heaven for me. Most days I would want to have a snack as I read a book but then I realize that isn鈥檛 my thing as chewing and reading don鈥檛 go so well with me. When I opted to have my coffee while I read, I then realized that I enjoyed my coffee so well.
Taking my coffee and reading is a great combination, I am immersed in two worlds that seem so compatible, the book world and then the world of my richly flavored coffee. This is relaxation at its peak. My mind is made to relax and be in different worlds that make me feel a Climax of happiness.
So whenever I need to read I get myself a cup of coffee and whenever I need to have my coffee I get myself a book alongside as this is one way I take my coffee enjoyment to the next level.
