Motivational- Life is Like a Cup of Coffee
The story goes like this:
A group of people were sitting in a coffee house, discussing life. As they talked, the conversation turned to the subject of life being like a cup of coffee.
One person said, “Life is like a cup of coffee. It all depends on how you make it.”
Another person said, “Yes, but you can’t control the water temperature, or the quality of the coffee beans.”
A third person added, “But you can control the amount of coffee and the strength of the brew.”
Then an older man, who had been listening quietly to the conversation, spoke up. He said, “Life is not like a cup of coffee, it’s the coffee cup that matters.
The cup is what holds the coffee and shapes its experience. And just like the cup, we need to focus on what’s around us, on what we have, and appreciate it.”
The group fell silent, pondering the old man’s words. The lesson of the story is that, like a cup of coffee, life is what we make of it.
We can choose to focus on what we have and appreciate it, or we can focus on what we lack and be discontent.
Ultimately, the cup that holds our life experiences is what matters, not the coffee inside.
