When you have coffee,
You have hospitality;
To open the door for strangers,
To welcome the others;
In your home,
In your heart.

From one seed of coffee bean, 
comes chats so genuine!

When you love coffee
but you haven't got a cup of it during the day, 
you'd find that something is lost.  
That's exactly the same way with G*d.  
When you love him/ her, 
but you do not keep close to him/ her, 
something has been lost.  
Everyone needs the Real.

A repost from my Facebook note (June 18, 2010):

In East Africa, popular lore gives Kaldi the goatherd credit for discovering coffee. He saw adult goats cavorting just like the kids after eating a strange shrub. Kaldi brought the berries to the monastery where the abbot threw them into the fire thinking them to be of the devil. This released of heavenly coffee aroma, and the berries were rescued. [Accordingly,] since it allowed the monks to remain alert during the devotions, it was viewed as a divine gift. 

Thanks to goats for giving inspiration to make neat the enormously amazing beans. Without goats, life would be very miserable for all coffee lovers. Yes, without goats the best beverage of the world would not be discovered.

I recall a memory of my seminary years. My psychological professor said that when he had gone to heaven, the very first persons he would meet to be the discoverer of coffee. Well, if I meet him someday, I will say, "Sir, I bet you have to meet the goats, and say thanks to them!"

Yea, how could I not say it: "Thanks, Goat!"?
