Un tesoro invalorable - A priceless treasure
Tener buenos amigos es poseer un tesoro, y aunque suene trillado es una gran verdad. Los buenos amigos siempre van a estar en las malas y en las buenas.
Mis primeros amigos fueron mis primos pero luego la vida me fue añadiendo personas amigas, de las cuales muchos se han quedado.
Siempre digo que lo más importante en la amistad, es saber conservarla. Eso es así en todas las relaciones y para eso hay acciones que deben hacerse de vez en cuando, como por ejemplo, dejar una tarde para tomar café.
Un día de estos nos reunimos un par de buenas amigas y yo para actualizarnos en información acerca de nuestras vidas. La velada se extendió hasta la noche. Charlamos, reímos, merendamos y por supuesto, tomamos café.
To have good friends is to possess a treasure, and although it sounds trite it is a great truth. Good friends will always be there through thick and thin.
My first friends were my cousins, but then life kept adding new friends, many of whom have remained.
I always say that the most important thing in friendship is to know how to keep it. That is true in all relationships and for that there are actions that must be done from time to time, such as, for example, leaving an afternoon for coffee.
One of these days a couple of good friends and I got together to catch up on information about our lives. The evening extended into the night. We chatted, laughed, snacked and of course, drank coffee.
Renuentes a olvidarnos - Unwilling to forget
Después de mi divorcio me fui a vivir a la casa de mis padres que quedaba lejos de mi residencia matrimonial. Eso significaba alejarme de dos de mis apreciadas amigas con quienes compartía mis más íntimos secretos.
A estas chicas las conocí en la iglesia donde asistía desde adolescente. Una de ellas comparte conmigo actualmente afición por Hive. Se trata de @g2ml, quien tiene un talento innato para cantar y alcanzar notas altísimas y una impresionante habilidad para las manualidades. Mi otra amiga se llama Rudy, es buena para dar consejos, animar y es súper solidaria con sus allegados.
Las tres hemos hecho un lazo de amistad irrompible a pesar de muchas vicisitudes. Este año hicimos un compromiso de frecuentarnos cada tres meses, sin embargo, en lo que va de año, hemos podido hacerlo sólo dos veces.
No es lo mismo hablar por teléfono, hacer alguna videollamada que hacer una reunión de amigas de manera presencial. Ésta última es la mejor porque, a pesar de la pandemia, esta semana pasada nos pudimos abrazar y hablar de muchos temas.
After my divorce I went to live at my parents' house, which was far from my marital residence. That meant moving away from two of my dearest friends with whom I shared my most intimate secrets.
I met these girls at the church I had attended since I was a teenager. One of them currently shares with me a fondness for Hive. She is @g2ml, who has an innate talent for singing and reaching soaring notes and an impressive ability for arts and crafts. My other friend's name is Rudy, she's good at giving advice, encouragement and is super supportive of those close to her.
The three of us have formed an unbreakable bond of friendship despite many vicissitudes. This year we made a commitment to meet every three months, but so far this year we have only been able to do so twice.
It's not the same to talk on the phone, make a video call or have a face-to-face meeting with friends. The latter is the best because, despite the pandemic, this past week we were able to hug and talk about many topics.
Tarde de café - Coffee afternoon
Rudy, la mayor de todas, nos trajo café artesanal molido, el cual puse a colar inmediatamente después que me lo dio. Ella lo vende en su casa y se lo traen del interior del país.
Últimamente en nuestra región se ha aumentado la venta del llamado café artesanal. Debido a la falta de marcas comerciales producto del encarecimiento de la importación, los productores pequeños han aprovechado para vender sus granos de forma libre sin restricción.
Esto representa un peligro para los consumidores en cierta manera porque también hay personas inescrupulosas que en vez de granos de café, muelen semillas de maíz u otros granos para imitarlos.
Rudy, the oldest of them all, brought us ground artisan coffee, which I put to brew immediately after she gave it to me. She sells it in her house and they bring it to her from the interior of the country.
Lately in our region there has been an increase in the sale of artisanal coffee. Due to the lack of commercial brands as a result of the increase in the price of imports, small producers have taken advantage of the situation to sell their beans freely without restriction.
This represents a danger for consumers in a certain way because there are also unscrupulous people that instead of coffee beans, grind corn seeds or other grains to imitate them.
Una amistad verdadera - True friendship
El café fue aprobado por todas, su sabor estaba bueno y lo disfrutamos con unas galletas crujientes que trajo @g2ml. Se nos hizo corta la tarde y prometimos acortar el tiempo de encuentro para tener menos que contarnos.
Me siento afortunada de tenerlas. Hemos pasado por grandes situaciones y aun así, nuestros corazones se unen. Siento que Dios me ha bendecido con amigas, las considero uno de mis más grandes tesoros.
Vale la pena conservarlas, y si es con café, mejor.
The coffee was approved by all, it tasted good and we enjoyed it with some crunchy cookies brought by @g2ml. The afternoon was short and we promised to shorten the meeting time so we would have less to tell each other.
I feel fortunate to have them. We have been through great situations and still our hearts are united. I feel that God has blessed me with friends, I consider them one of my greatest treasures.
They are worth keeping, and if it is with coffee, all the better.
Hasta otra valiosa oportunidad, amigos queridos.
Until another valuable opportunity, dear friends.

Hello @rosa4r
I do agree that coffee tastes better with friends, and having good friends is a blessing that should be valued😍
It's great that you found time to catch up even though not as regularly as you'd like.
That's such a shame. I first discovered that there was corn coffee at a supermarket in the Philippines. I never tried it, but at least it was clearly labelled, so customers would not be tricked into buying it thinking it was real coffee.
Thank you for stopping by ☕️
Have a great day!💐
