There is something in coffee that calls to you as if it were a higher force. This is a magnificent feeling that I have only found in this drink, and I have not felt greater satisfaction than when I feel this calling and I am going to fulfill my desires.
A few days ago I took my sister to her French classes at the Alliance Française. As soon as all the children entered their respective classrooms, everything was completely silent. Just thinking that there was a cafe nearby I said to myself, why not? And I was quickly on my way there.
I was visually struck by a sign that I had never seen before in my visits to that place. "Coffee is always a good idea", as if it were a divine message confirming my cravings. I took the opportunity to order a short coffee, took out a poetry book and tried to relax in the new environment.
When I was already drinking my order, T.S. Elliot surprised me by saying that he had measured his entire life with coffee spoons. In my case, I think I could measure mine in coffee cups, but the bill would be too big. Again that product of the coincidences made me take a good smile.
I spent a good time like that, reading, drinking my coffee and admiring the landscape around me. There are so many things that we often overlook, so that was the ideal moment to breathe and connect. Coffee, with its characteristic strong flavor, forces you to wake up in the here and now, and that's probably another reason why I like to consume it so much.
When I left there I felt that I had regained contact with some part of me that I was leaving behind, and I felt very grateful. I love coffee and I adore these kind of experiences that only happen around it. That's all for now regarding today's post. I hope you liked it. Until next time!

Hay algo en el café que te llama como si fuera una fuerza superior. Esta es una sensación magnífica que solo he encontrado en esta bebida, y no he sentido mayor satisfacción que cuando siento este llamado y voy a cumplir con mis deseos.
Hace unos días debí llevar a mi hermana a sus clases de francés en la Alianza Francesa. Apenas todos los niños entraron a sus respectivos salones de clases, todo quedó en absoluto silencio. De tan solo pensar en que cerca había una cafetería me dije a mí mismo, ¿por qué no? Y rápidamente me encaminaba hacia allá.
Me impactó visualmente un cartel que jamás había visto antes en mis visitas a ese lugar. "El café es siempre una buena idea", como si fuera un mensaje divino confirmando mis ansias. Aproveché para pedir un café cortadito, saqué un libro de poesía y traté de relajarme en el nuevo ambiente.
Cuando ya bebía mi pedido, T.S. Elliot me sorprendió diciendo que había medido toda su vida con cucharillas de café. En mi caso, creo que podría medir la mía en tazas de café, pero la cuenta sería muy grande. Otra vez ese producto de las coincidencias me hizo llevarme una buena sonrisa.
Pasé un buen tiempo así, leyendo, tomando de mi café y admirando el paisaje a mi alrededor. Hay tantas cosas que muchas veces pasamos por alto, así que ese era el momento idóneo para respirar y conectar. El café, con su sabor fuerte característico, te obliga a despertar en el aquí y en el ahora, y probablemente esa sea otra de las razones del porqué me gusta tanto consumirlo.
Cuando salí de allí sentí que había recuperado el contacto con alguna parte de mí que estaba dejando atrás, y me sentí muy agradecido. Amo el café y adoro este tipo de experiencias que solo suceden a su alrededor. Por ahora esto es todo en cuanto al post de hoy. Espero que les haya gustado. ¡Hasta la próxima!

Oh this is lovely! I love The Love Song... Do you know this reading:
I think it's sublime :) And what better pairing than with a nice cup of coffee.
I agree, it is indeed sublime. But was Anthony Hopkins sipping coffee too? 😂
Coffee is life to some, so yeah, coffee is always a good idea. I am not that too addicted to it now though coz it's bad for me. But a creamy coffee is so addicting, i'm so sad I can't always have it. The cafe looks like a nice place to just sit and relax, and with a book that you can read, that's a perfect pair I think.
It's so sad that coffee's bad for your health. Hope you can get to reach something that you enjoy as much as this 🙏🏼.
It is e beautiful place.
It is, even though it might look a little over decorated... 😁

When I drink coffee, I usually like to gaze into the distance and sip it while reminiscing about the past, the present, and the future. And you're never wrong: coffee is always a good idea.
So good to know 'bout your experience. Thanks for passing by and dropping this comment 😁🙌🏼✨
Coffee has something to fall in love with, of course a coffee makes the difference and is always good, a good steaming cup of coffee, with a delicious aroma and exquisite flavor, here's to more coffee days like these, cheers
What else can I say? Cheers! 😁☕
Se percibe un ambiente agradable en ese lugar.
¡Qué bien!
