That cup of coffee this morning was perfect. It is around 13 Celsius here in Moscow and the hot beverage made for a wonderful morning. In fact I am on my second cup of coffee and the first was encompassed with lots of thinking’s on my part…
Coffee and Life:
Coffee and life seem to be important to me. I tried to break that coffee habit and failed. I have failed a thousand times. I tried one time to stop smoking after 30+ years and succeeded. I do not drink alcohol and never had to drink in the first place. Alcohol is a poison and it really needs to stay out of the body. Smoking is a poison, just like smoking anything is a poison to your body and anyone who tells you that sucking down smoke from marihuana is okay for you! Well they just want someone to join them in their bad habit. I laugh when I read about how smoking pot is so much better for you than cigarettes. Like inhaling any form of burning leaves is good for your lungs… 🙂
My last bad habit is coffee and I really think that I will keep that bad habit. For a cup of coffee and thinking about how beautiful the world is, well is just perfect. The world is a wonderful place and it is so full of fantastic and marvelous things, that only “a fool and his money” can not see the world for what it is…
So if coffee kills me, “Then so be it!”
About Life:
I once was asked in the heat of a battle, “Are you scared!”
I said, “Hell yes. Scared enough to live!”
I though about that later and realized that fear I expressed was the edge that kept me alive, when all around me have passed away. For those that become complacent die a quick death on the field of honor…
Life is what you make it and there is no one out there who is going to carry you. For we so many times make our own graves by the injustices that we do. Believe in god, but do not expect him to block the bullet that is coming straight at your heart. You have to learn how to keep from getting in the way of that bullet. I just have an issue with the god that does not step in the way of people who kill for no reason, except greed, money, lust and power. I agree we must learn and grow, but so much death is upon the weak and helpless. They have a life to live also. Survival of the fittest is also the fittest to help others survive. There are many people in this world who do not realize that they have a bullet to step out of the way of, because that bullet should never be there in the first place…
About Coffee:
I was once asked by a captor, in a deep dark jungle, what if I had to make a decision about the peacefulness of the rest of my life, between a cup of coffee or a pistol laying on a desk, he said “Chose between that cup of coffee or the gun!”
I said, “I would take the pistol and shoot your ass and then drink the coffee before it got cold!”
4 months later, after being beaten a hundred times, I was asked the same question again, by the same guy…
This time I answered, “I would drink the coffee first, because last time you took to long to die, the coffee got cold! Then – I would shoot your ass!”
For some strange reason known only to him, he let me go…
That sums up life to me and I realize that my summation of life is different than yours, because I have been places and done things that you will never do. Just as you have done things I will never do…
Have a nice day…
