"Sometimes, the simple things are more fun and meaningful than all the banquets in the world …"
E.A. Bucchianeri, Brushstrokes of a Gadfly
Indeed. These days I find the simple things in my life are the most satisfying and fulfilling. A text from my children, a magnificent sunrise or even a smile from a beautiful woman.
Ah yes, even a perfect maple bar (insert Homer Simpson drooling) can make a crappy morning seem less ordinary and more extraordinary! Add to that delicacy, a perfectly brewed cup of coffee and suddenly it's a pretty good looking Wednesday! It's magical how a little sugar and caffeine can brighten one's day! Why if it wasn't for the readily available supply of coffee and sugar (and the fear of addiction or death) I'd definitely consider alternative substances on mornings like this one.
Since my induced state of being was going so well, I decided to take it a step further and peruse the internet…
$#&$#@!$$ Internet!!! Damn you, Al Gore!!!
According to Healthline.com, A study found that “intermittent access to sugar can lead to behavioral and neurochemical changes that resemble the effects of a substance of abuse.”
Well at least I still have my coffee…
According to Addictioncenter.com, Caffeine has addictive properties that may lead to physical dependence. People that regularly consume Caffeine need to make good and responsible choices when it comes to consumption, such as limiting intake to only one or two cups of coffee a day.
Whatever! Temporary happiness this morning, reality tomorrow.
