Who of you reading this has never tasted coffee in your life? I dare say no one. The vast majority of people have adopted coffee as that touch of energy that our body needs every morning.
Not for all people mornings start at 6am, for some it starts at 3am, others at 5am, whatever time it is, mornings start with that spirit of facing a day full of so many energies, challenges, wars, facts that somehow a simple cup of coffee helps us to deviate for a moment and enter into reflection of what we are going to face.
Whether it is the flavor or that pleasant aroma so characteristic that often takes us to imaginary worlds, to create, to innovate ideas in our head, that without realizing it, in our best projects the cup of coffee has been present.
And I know that just as there are people who love coffee, there are others who do not like the taste it leaves in their mouths. I just tell them that this simple beverage that contains particles of energy is more than that, it is an identity, it is part of a daily act that we assume like any other routine, such as exercising, bathing or eating.
Coffee has been so important in the world that they have created spaces that only sell coffee, you can sit down every morning and enjoy this pleasant beverage, be it sweet or bitter, but enjoy it in tranquility or in the company of others. The meetings with friends in these places have been the meeting point of great ideas, projects, poems, in short, great things have been generated by this action of pausing around us drinking coffee.
Here I leave you an anonymous poem, I don't know who could have written it but I loved it and I wanted to share it with you:
The aroma of coffee in the morning, so sweet and enveloping, Awakens my senses, fills me with warmth and encourages me. The first drops fall into the cup, like soft music, And transport me to a world of calm and serenity.
Its intense and deep flavor makes me sigh with pleasure, Each sip is a warm embrace in my cold soul, Coffee is my refuge, my faithful companion in the day, Who accompanies me in good times and bad.
A coffee with friends, a pleasant and sincere chat, A coffee in solitude, a pause to reflect and meditate. No matter how I take it, it will always be a gift, Coffee is that little joy that sweetens my days.
Thank you coffee, for your existence so simple and so beautiful, For filling my life with special moments and eternal memories. You are more than a drink, you are a balm for the soul, Coffee, that elixir that nourishes and comforts me without equal.
