Coffee mornings, time in nature, sex, and experiencing love are some of the most soul-satisfying things in life. However, coffee in bed does not appeal to me—I associate my bedroom with other things, not food, unless it's as stated above. So, upon rising, my first cup of coffee in the morning is always at my dining table, where I like to sit with the front doors open, looking out at the nature surrounding the canals.
Spooning ;)Sitting down for breakfast is the most relaxing time for me when I take deep breaths, take small bites, and chew my meal mindfully. My eyes rotate to the movements of birds and other wildlife, while my heart smiles at the exciting sounds of chirping birds as I hold my warm cup of coffee.
I don't always have breakfast with my husband, but I do enjoy quiet solo breakfast mornings too. On mornings like these, I sometimes play soft background music if it fits my mood, and the song Coffee in the Morning, by Miguel, is the first on my automatic playlist, which acts as an aphrodisiac with coffee, and it leaves me having healthy sexual fantasies.
I even like to take casual glances at the music video; after all, the song is indeed about coffee, sex, and love, with a dark, gritty, artsy undertone. Watching this video is heartwarming, and it makes me thankful for the love and desire that I feel for my husband.
This mellow mood, while slowly sipping my coffee, accentuates my breakfast and makes everything more delicious.
I continue my musical flow with this song that encapsulates everything that I believe in, and I play it on repeat throughout breakfast—Simple Things by Miguel.
While dining, I wish I could time-travel back to being a teenager.
"I would handwrite a letter with the lyrics of this song, spill coffee over the page, dry the page in the sun, seal the envelope, and make a wish for someone just like my husband."
I listen to this song daily, and it's become my daily mantra. It expresses how I truly feel about life, and the lyrics, melody, and beats of the song remind me to slow down and take the time to appreciate the simple things that bring true happiness to my life.
Namaste!
