If coffee is my god, where does chocolate fit in?
I don’t have any Gods, I just have preferred things to have in my life! Coffee, chocolate, writing, friends, I love them all, no need for God(s)!
Coffee wakes up the synapses in my brain, help me to bring out the words I need to write what I’m going to need to write the book I intend writing about this ‘RUST & FOUND’ Project.
Poetry and Prose, words, words, words — and of course chocolate makes a fine reward for me as I go along getting the bits and pieces happening!
If by God, one means an overarching thing that encourages better behaviour, then sure, that’s coffee for me, without coffee in the morning, I can be grumpy and even lazy!
So with coffee at least twice a day, I’ll keep on going, doing all of the things that need to be done, maintaining a happy and helpful disposition. Add in some chocolate every now and then, and it’s even better.
I have no rules imposed by an invisible being or beings, I just go by my own understanding of good behaviour, based on community norms, and life continues on, good for me, and good for those I have dealings with!
And if there are any things that seem troublesome? A bit of chocolate brings sweetness, and those things can be smoothed over and made more reasonable.
