Today, in the middle of the day I enjoyed a cup of strong enough cafe latte without any added sugar at all.
I remembered my late mom's question before. "How can you like coffee even without sugar?"
Me, who have had the ability to create prose words long ago, told my late mom that this is about love.
Love that forms habits. I love coffee, and makes me like to enjoy coffee without sugar. even though it's not sweet, but I like the taste.
Aren't coffee and love always the same deep topics and never run out to be discussed? ☺️❤️
Although very interesting, there are also many people who don't like coffee, there are also people who don't want to talk about love.
Some are disappointed because of love, some are disappointed because of coffee. Both come from pain but there are those who don't give up.
That's how love is warm only as fast as hot coffee cooling down. Also as fast as iced coffee that becomes liquid and no longer tastes anything. Like in a relationship, love will not last long. But it will be replaced with a deeper taste, like the effect of caffeine in coffee that actually lasts longer in the body.
I smiled at my husband who was looking at the street. I enjoyed the smell of my coffee before taking a sip. While looking at my husband's face.
My husband who managed to melt my heart like the coffee that made me addicted. Writing like this makes me blush, but I like to write as it is.
Love and coffee are not always disappointing. We just need to be wise in dealing with it. It's not easy, but we can keep learning.
If you were asked what love feels like, you might fail to explain it. You can only say that love makes you feel happy and not lonely. But the depth of other secrets cannot be guessed.
Just like coffee. You might only be able to explain that coffee is about the bitter and the delicious smell. But the unique taste of the various aftertastes cannot be explained.
In fact, everyone has a different definition of coffee and love, according to the perception formed from their experiences.
Whatever it is, I can only say. Never give up. If love has ever disappointed you, maybe you just haven't met the right person. If coffee makes your stomach hurt, maybe you just haven't found the right type of coffee and the right way to drink it. ☺️
Coffee is not delicious without snacks. Like love that is not exciting without a sweet surprise.
I ordered tofu filled with vegetables, because my husband likes this type of vegetable. I can also like what my husband likes.
My husband cut a tofu filled with vegetables into two parts. He cut the tofu for me, to make it easier for me to eat the tofu.
Meanwhile, I poured hot chili sauce on a small part of the tofu filled with vegetables for my husband.
Complement each other. And never wonder why your partner is not perfect. Never ask why coffee tastes bitter ☺️
That's about life. There are things we have to go through without knowing the depth of the secret. Because secrets are what keep us alive. Collecting answers after answers to cover up the shortcomings. To keep us beating with new achievements.
That's all for now about the writing that just passed through my mind while I was drinking coffee. Stay enthusiastic, and love the people who are there for you all the time. ❤️
