What do these three people have in common? Well, for one, they are all under the spell of the most potent potion of invigoration known to man, coffee. People all over the world must agree that no matter how much and what you do to it coffee will always be the drink that we come back for.
Back in the old days, coffee was served to revitalize travelers coming from a very far journey. It was served to rejuvenate both the spirit and the flesh. The news that the traveler may have brought would be better told if the bearer had energy of body and spirit.
In modern times, coffee serves more than the purpose of invigoration. For some people, it is a form of relaxation. A way to slow down after living life in the fast lane, a way to take thing slow after running after dreams and goals.
For some people is it a social ritual that bonds friends, family and future friends together. Any way you put it or take it. Coffee makes people come together in different places, in different ways.
