Happy New Years Eve! Despite all the coverage of doom and gloom, chocolate still exists in the form of a hot, creamy mocha at Barnes & Nobles.
Good morning. And how did you start the very last morning on planet Earth, in the year two thousand twenty-three? Next year, I will celebrate 60 years of this planet twirling. So, this day is a passage for me. Decided to keep breakfast simple, but with beautiful flavors.
I love the calm, unrushed pace of Barnes & Nobles' bookstore. I love to consume books, so why not consume a crusty croissant sammie, with sausage, a fried egg, and coffee as well?
I have yet to go to a stand-alone Starbucks. I only go to Starbucks at B&N. I guess I just don't want to become an addict willing to wait in a car line when that is just more traffic. Here, you get face-to-face, human interaction. No exhaust fumes. Seems as if the world is revolving just a tad slower, without gravity shooting us into outer space. Just the right pace, just the right place to have a moment to enjoy just being alive. Could you use a moment like this? Sure you could.
Here's to all of us finding our center. Turn off the news. Find your mini-zen place as I have. Tune out the horrors of the world, and tune in that beauty hasn't disappeared. You're beautiful, so it must be true.
Take care of yourselves, your loved ones, and strangers you have yet to make loved ones.
