Coffee is a passion shared by millions of people around the world. If you're a fan, there's nothing quite like that much-needed cup of joe lighting up your insides with its life-giving blend of taste, aroma, and sheer pick-me-up.
But what serves the same purpose for your spirit? What gets you all revved up and ready for the world?
What's your ideal cup of metaphorical soul-coffee like?
1 = INTAKE. Small, medium, or large? Tall, Grande, or Venti? Petite, Moderate, or Frigging Gargantuan? Whatever your spiritual go-juice is, when you ingest it, do you do that in small quantities, or do you need to have barrels of it on hand? Do you sip it delicately, or do you guzzle it down in great gulps? What's your intake like?
2 = TASTE. Some like their coffee strong and bitter, so that swallowing it is almost like a trial...others want it so sweet that a child could happily drink it. Is your soul-coffee harsh and demanding...light and sugary...or something in between?
3 = INTENSITY. You can find coffee drinkers who favor decaf – they like the taste and the smell and the ritual of the coffee, but they don't want the caffeine. You can also find some for whom the caffeine is the whole point, and the liquid coffee part is just a delivery system. Is your soul-coffee about the pleasures of taking it in...or is it about the rush that it provides you?
4 = ORIGIN. Do you favor a boost that comes from local, homegrown, familiar sources? Or do you feel most drawn to the exotic fare that hails from far-off lands? Where does your soul-coffee originate?
