coffee, coffee, coffee ... was what was generally heard in the cafeteria, most of the people in a hurry for work, studies or just their daily routine.
how to blame them, we live in a society where there is no time to lose, where speed is almost like breathing, something we do instinctively
the day to day was always to listen to the same thing until people appear that you change the days and sometimes the life.
I present to you an old client, his name is Ignacio
He is one of those special people, and I'm not saying that because he suffers from some kind of disability.
I tell you because he is one of those people who speaks to you without making distinctions, you are not the one who only serves him his coffee almost every day, he sees you as a person just like anyone else.
He always asks you how was your day, how are you feeling, if you already had breakfast, if you have already had lunch, everything.
Ignacio didn't like to be cared for by someone other than me, because only I knew how he loved his coffee, "half dark coffee, 1/4 coffee a day, a little cold water, an ice and much much sweetener "
And I did not like another person to take care of him, just because nobody took the time to make coffee the way he liked it, for many he was just a patient who came for a coffee that nobody could like, instead for I was one of my favorite clients, since he was one of the few who do not lie when they speak, that if they ask you how are you, it is because he is really interested in knowing it, he is one of those people who are authentic, that even if many see him with some disability, I know that he has lived life much more than anyone. Because he has the secret of a good life, which is to live it being oneself and not what the rest want you to be.
Today reviewing the photos of the cafeteria I found Ignacio's and I wanted to share the story of one of my best clients with this beautiful community, my eyes are filled with tears of nostalgia and joy, good memories.
I miss working in the cafeteria, obviously because of the coffee, but a great part of wondering is because of this, for the pleasure of meeting these types of people, the ones that just being them, make you be another :)
I just hope that where you are having your Ignacio coffees, they are preparing them the way you love them, and that they treat you as the best customer <3
