A cup of coffee shared with a friend is happiness tasted and time well spent.
Such wisdom from an anonymous person, I only wish coffee wasn’t my only friend. Actually, coffee isn’t my only friend, just the only one that I have mutual interests with. I used to have friends who liked to sit down for coffee with me, but we have all gone our separate ways.
