THE COFFEE OF MY DREAMS

I feel that I have wasted my time working and fulfilling the goals of others without taking into account my true interests and even more if it was what I wanted for my life, now that I am 60 years old and I find myself drinking my appreciated cup of coffee alone and surrounded by so much luxury, with such a big house and even so I ask myself, was it worth it for me to abandon my family?

I remember that during my childhood I went through so many shortages and limitations with my whole family, that now that I think about it with a cold head this caused serious consequences in my life, since I determined myself not to have children so that they would not go through situations similar to ours, where my 5 siblings and I practically had to take turns to be able to eat or otherwise eat small crumbs so that the food would be enough.

But this at the same time was like that push I needed to get out of that place and understand that I had to improve myself, I worked hard day and night for a few years, meanwhile on weekends I dedicated myself to my studies, until I managed to graduate from high school and soon I enrolled in college to become a professional engineer in the handling of food.

My objectives were clearly described and was to be able to position myself in my own company to maintain a stable economy, I dedicated myself in body, soul and spirit to find this goal and if I will not deny that it was hard the way, many days and nights working hard with my faithful companion who never leaves me coffee and I had to make great sacrifices but I reached it, I currently have a large food company and different branches in various parts of the world, which leave me excellent royalties and I have an economic life without worry.

But I made a serious mistake in the quest to achieve my goals, I neglected and abandoned my siblings and never dedicated myself to build my own family, to be dedicated to work, my best moments I have experienced in the laboratories of my company, conducting relevant tests to improve the quality of food and that these are long lasting without the need for their flavors are compromised with the addiction of the chemical preservative.

One of the most outstanding projects is to have found a coffee that does not leave any type of residue when it comes into contact with hot water, besides the rich aroma it gives off and not to mention the exquisiteness of its flavor, this was undoubtedly the boom of the moment leaving as a result substantial profits to my company.

But I feel that I still have something to achieve, I have in my mind the intention of obtaining a better result with this rich beverage and that is why my new project to be developed is centered on coffee, but I have not yet found the ideal combination to find that which I myself am not clear on what it is, but which will bring the coffee revolution to the market.

While with each sip I taste my sips of coffee, sitting on the terrace of my house, I think that I am wasting my time and I go back to my company to continue with the search for that formula without having a clear objective, but with the firm conviction that I will not leave there without finding what my heart desires and yearns for, what better birthday present than to obtain one more achievement in my life.

I continue doing the previous rehearsals and after several days without sleep I think I have achieved the ideal combination, if I am going to try this delicious coffee, I go out to my office looking for the coffee pot to try my new creation, I am too impatient and I feel that it has been an eternity waiting for the water to boil, finally it is ready and very anxious I take the first sip and something suddenly surprised me.

I was no longer in my office, I was in the kitchen of a house that I didn't know at all, in the distance I hear voices of a girl calling her mother, but I don't know who she is, she comes to the kitchen and tells me "mommy look at my grades! but I continue without understanding what is happening, apparently she is my daughter, I am very confused, she is a very pretty girl and has my same eyes, I stare at her and she just gives me a strong and sweet hug that shook me all over.

I had never experienced a feeling similar to these emotions that my body feels, not even with all the professional achievements I have obtained have I felt something like this, without being able to control my tears flow from my eyes, I think I'm happy, just at that moment I hear the voice of my secretary calling me and asking me at the same time Mrs. Madrid, did you fall asleep in the office?

I wake up with my cheeks wet, I look around and realize that everything has been the result of a dream, what good would it be to achieve a secret formula for a coffee that would fulfill the desires of my heart?
