morning coffee

March 31, 2026

In my life nearly every hour that I'm awake holds something for me. So my morning coffee is a moment I try to keep for myself. When the gang is still sleeping I take the time to brew and drink it in silence, read a book or follow my thoughts whereever they take me. As a morning person these are my 15-20 minutes I have on my own everyday. My mind is fresh and clear. I can not compare them to the 60 to 90 minutes in the evening when the little one is at sleep and the thing we call "Feierabend" in Germany takes place. Usally I'm exhausted and tired and there is not much left in the tank for creative thaughts and ideas...even talking feels too much from time to tome. So the morning coffee is not just a delicious drink - it's a ritual that is more important then I ever thought it could be before having a family :D
