Plain

At times, all you need is a simple break-from school, from people, from the surroundings... And at that point, I decide to make myself a cup of delicious coffee, preferably strong and sweetened. Those 7 minutes are dedicated entirely to myself, to my indulgement and enjoyment. There is a whole history standing behind that glorious potion... Since the beginning of the human kind, people discovered a herb that would feel them not only warm but also boosted with energy. Pretty amazing, wouldn't you say? Later, it occured to someone that he would benefit from nurturing it and exporting it and there you go- Brazil stands for the no. 1 exporter of coffee in the world. Or you can support it with social facts-a prominent sociologist Emile Durkheim said that there is an entire ritual devoted to drinking coffee... It is not only that, but also fundamental for engaging into conversations with people, and whenever you feel for a cup of coffee, you are longing for an interaction with people. Who would have thought-a simple bean led to being the most famous drink in the world, the necessity for starting a day, reading newspapers or, simply, wanting to have a moment of peace with yourself... :)
