*Donna plopped my cup down on the counter and threw me a careless, “have a nice day.” I looked at the smoldering cup, sure the boiling liquid would singe my tongue off! I immediately gave up on asking for a sleeve.
There are several things that really bother me, literal abominations: treating little people (our most vulnerable) poorly, over-talkers who go on incessantly about themselves, and interrupting my good book with, “is that a good book?” Added to my list, which may seem small but I assure you is not, is angry food!
If you have a saavy tongue, you know it when you taste it! Coming from a family where food is fellowship, celebration, intimacy, long talks around the table and laughter, I can literally taste the emotion in food (it's a gift :) Love, delight , creativity fills every corner of the senses. This is why Donna at *SkyBucks irked me! I watched her measurements closely:
¼ Cup of Tired
1 ½ of on her Nerves
5 Pumps of They Don’t Pay Me Enough
With whipped steam & I Really Don’t Give A ----drizzle on top
It’s these times I’m thankful for the good in my life. On days where lattes are crafted angrily, clerks are impatient , traffic congestion threatens your religion, or you have a health scare, it’s wonderful to reflect on the blessings, no matter how small. Try: I had the best latte two day ago, last week's traffic was all green lights, my health could be better, but it was good enough that I got out today, and the kids may be hell, but they've got all their limbs & nothing's broken!
Wisdom: Take a deep breath. Reflect. Everyone has something they can be thankful for.
