It can be said that coffee is part of the routine of many people nowadays, in order to work better, to move better, to think better, etc. people drink it every day and of course I am not exception to this. My opinion about coffee can’t be more positive, to the point that through my life I had given my most sincere thanks to the person who discovered the beverage we know as coffee(even though I don’t know his/her actual name…)
Even though my ability to make a moving speech is really low, I believe I can make it better writing, so if I can express well enough my fondness to coffee and find someone who can agree with me through this post then I guess my objective is accomplished.
As someone in the faction of people who drink coffee (self-evident) and as a pro coffee drinker (self-proclaimed) maybe I give off the impression of someone that has liked coffee since the beginning but, as you can guess, it wasn’t like that at all; my history with coffee started in my last years of high school when my younger self needed to do all-nighters to keep with homework and projects and early in the morning my grandmother, always someone who rises before the sun itself, brought me a cup of black coffee and with its strong and bitter flavor did a pretty good job in giving me the shock needed to last through the coming school day. Of course to this day I’m still someone with a sweet tooth so in those times the sigh of that cup of coffee put a scowl in my face so adding sugar was, of course, my next action when drinking it and after finding the best balance (for my taste) between bitter and sweet drinking coffee came to be something like one of my hobbies. By the time I started college the times I needed to drink coffee went up and always prepare/buy two cups of it. When in my house I usually prepare it around 10pm, as after years of drinking it the stimulating effects of coffee are nowhere to be felt, if I need to pull an all-nighter is a good way to start the long night of work I have ahead if not, even if I just go to sleep some hours later those cups of coffee make it worth the long day I leave behind; coffee is my way to relax and lift a weight of my shoulders.
This ended up being kind of short, as I felt I had more to say but I guess this is well enough, as you don’t need a big reason to do something you enjoy. This is all for today and I hope you enjoyed the ride and if you feel like, please comment on your own ways to enjoy coffee as I would like to hear it
