don’t leave your coffee

sitting for too long, then wonder why it turns cold. it’s not really about the coffee. it's about how we forget that time doesn’t wait for us. we take people for granted, thinking they will always be there. we ignore the little moments, believing we'll get another chance. we think we can come back later and everything will still be the same. but just like the coffee turning cold, these things, these people, didn’t change on their own.

we're the ones who let them sit for too long. the truth is, people don’t wait forever, and chances often come only once. so don’t blame the coffee. don’t blame the world for turning it cold. ask yourself, did you keep it while it was still warm? did you give time when it mattered? or did you assume it would always be there, waiting for you? it's not about the coffee.
