Life is short. Drink coffee

I was optimizing some product details on Zazzle, and some of them were a few favorites of mine with the slogan “Life is short. Drink coffee.”

Of course this quote is and isn’t about coffee, but I also happen to love this drink. And when I created this slogan, the message was twofold: get more things done in a day, and also get yourself out there, somewhere where life isn’t all that relaxed, but where you can do more things and meet more people. Because we often go for coffee with friends, or, as it happened to me, meet interesting people while visiting coffeeshops.

Now, of course there will be people who feel wonderful in the wilderness (I’m thinking of the BBC series with Ben Fogle, which I take much delight in), or people who live in both worlds (secluded place with access to a town, or even the edge of a small town), but for those of us living in this hectic world in cities, it helps to have a friendly crutch at home and socially, and coffee is that crutch. I always drink coffee when meeting with friends, for instance. It may be decaf, but it’s (some) java nevertheless. I don’t have enough energy and I need that pick-me-up. I’m also trying to avoid freshly squeezed orange juice, which is very tasty and healthy but also has lots of sugars.

So anyway, for those of you who love coffee too, enjoy!

And the T-shirt 🙂

Have a wonderful year, with lots of accomplishments! I’ll be back with more funny and cute quotes for coffee lovers, including with some designs with a new illustration I have just received from an illustrator friend.

To a happier, healthier life,

🙂 Mira
