There are mornings when your coffee looks more awake than you.
It stares back, unimpressed by your ambition and your to-do list. You sip, it sighs. You promise to quit sugar, it knows better. Somewhere between the second and third sip, your brain joins the party, and the day begins to behave. Coffee doesn’t fix problems—it just makes them easier to tolerate. Like a patient therapist in a ceramic mug, it listens without judgment and forgives your procrastination, one sip at a time.
