The 23rd Cup

Caffeine is my shepherd; I shall not doze.  It maketh me to wake in green pastures;it leadeth me beyond the sleeping masses.  It restoreth my buzz: it leadeth me in the paths of consciousness for its name's sake. Yea,though I walk through the valley of the shadow of addiction, I'll fear no Equal for thou art with me; thy cream and thy flavorings they comfort me. Thou preparest a carafe before me in the presence of Juan Valdez: thou anointest my days with vigor; my mug runneth over. Surely flavor and aroma shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the House of Maxwell forever.  Amen!
 


Life Is About

Life is about who you love and who you hurt. It's about who you make happy or unhappy purposefully. It's about keeping or betraying trust. It's about friendship, used as a sanctity or a weapon. It's about what you say and mean, maybe hurtful, maybe heartening. About not starting rumors and contributing to petty gossip. It's about what judgments you pass and why. And who your judgments are spread to. It's about who you've ignored with full control and intention. It's about stopping jealousy, fear, ignorance, and revenge. It's about stopping inner hate and fostering inner love, letting it grow, and spreading it. But most of all, it's about using your life to touch and not poison other peoples' hearts in such a way that could have never occurred alone. Only you choose the way those hearts are affected, and those choices are what life's all about.
