3:00.

around 3:00 pm most days I reach the point where I know I should stop the coffee and switch over to green tea.

some days i do and i always feel the difference. i sit at my desk and think, is this what it's like to meditate? is this what it's like to be good at yoga? this is good. i should do this again tomorrow.

the days i do it are usually better than the days i pour a third cup of coffee and contemplate a chocolate run downstairs.

but i've trained myself to stop and listen.

this is hard.

some days it's less hard.

our days can go in a dozen different directions, but i'm grateful that this one is ending with a dog burying his head in my lap because he knows how i need it.

  1. I agree with how you feel when you pour a 3rd cup of coffee. it's addictive and oh! so good in the moment but afterwards you start thinking maybe tea or water would have been a better option.
    i guess sometimes we should think more before acting :)

    1. Thanks for reaching out, Belen! It's always that point in the afternoon when I find myself in the office kitchen. Like clockwork. :)
