Bliss In A Cup Of Gourmet Coffee

One of the upsides in loving gourmet coffee is the chance to scream to the whole world how deep I am in love with the brown bean. Coffee is an undeniable ritual to a lot of people. When coffee lovers get up in the morning, they think about having their first cup and all the delights that come with prepping it. The sound of the beans hitting the grinder, the aroma as it begins, the delicate scoop of the coffee grounds into the basket — coffee lovers find their own source of Zen.

Can a drink bring bliss? A lot of readers might raise their eyebrows. They might think that it has become so commonplace for it to end up in bliss, gourmet or not.

However, I beg to disagree. Gourmet coffee has something to do with our self-pleasure, it’s our simple form of indulgence, and much attention and care are given. It makes life worth living, at least to me.

Just take this into consideration. A lot of the people who are spiritual claim that when you experience nature, you get closer to the Creator. Coffee, basically, is among the most natural drinks available to mankind. Put in some fresh milk from the cow, and right then and there, you are having a cup of nature’s bliss. To sum it all up, you can absolutely find heaving in a cup of Joe.

Every time I have my cup of coffee, I find bliss. My mid-afternoon coffee run gives me sustenance and strength. I find solace in my post-dinner or late night decaf cup. Yes, I am a true blue coffee lover.

It’s something that no one or nothing can take away from me. If you have your own brand of happiness, I have mine. I have found it in coffee, and every waking day, I will find it in coffee.

Why I Love Coffee Forever

There are days when I just feel blah and all I want to do is just sleep in, but I don’t since it makes my day blah-er. Since that weighs me down even more, I try to just stay in my room and watch trash TV. However, while doing so, I want to be awake at all times. More often than not, laying or just sitting in bed makes me drowsy. Why I want to stay awake in bed, you may ask. For starters, these ‘blah days’ almost always occur during daytime, and I am almost always not able to sleep at night whenever I sleep all day.

Anyways, I have noticed I have been beating around the bush, what I wanted to tell since the first paragraph is about how I love coffee. It’s always my silver lining during days that could do better. I drink my coffee, and my mood is instantly lifted. It’s my favorite pick-me-upper.

I have always loved coffee. As a child, whenever I eat rice, I always ask my nanny to make me a cup of black coffee with some sugar and pour it in my bowl of rice. Of course, I would also ask her not tell my mom about it, since my mom always calls me out on drinking coffee at such a tender age. I guess she didn’t like the extra energy I had everytime I had coffee.

Coffee has helped me get through one of the hardest times in my life, college. You know what comes along with college, all the homework, paperwork, thesis, stuff like that. Sleep was not my best friend during that time, coffee is. There were times when I wanted to just give in to my drowsiness and just put myself in deep slumber, not minding all the C’s I would get if I do so. But when I had a cup of joe in hand, the temptation was always ignored. Yay, coffee.

Yes, even up to this very day, I’m still in love with coffee. You can imagine me sipping from my cup in between typing, sure. I can’t imagine life without it. I swear by it. I love it. I will always and forever love coffee. How about you? Are you as in love with coffee as I am?
