Ultimate Connectivity: how coffee can be relaxing Janet Kuypers 10/7/16 Every time I went back to my childhood getaway... Every time I’d go for a walk I felt like half the people knew me. You didn’t feel afraid to say hello to strangers because everyone     here     was at home. Now, I don’t drink coffee. I don’t like the taste and I don’t need the caffeine. But when I was here, at what seems like my own little retreat, I’d pour myself a really weak cup, sweeten it up to replenish my sweet stock and I’d sit at the table outside in the morning to write, or I’d sit at the bench and watch retired couples play round robin doubles tennis. They’d ask me if I’d like to join them, but no, I was happy here, with my insanely weak coffee that was just warm enough to warm my spirits, and keep me company as I enjoyed the morning breeze and the connection I felt with everyone around me.
