just some opinions and maybe a fact or two, from a retired hair psychologist –lady j

Coffee appeals to those with a heart/brain connection because it makes them happy. A bug in the system occurs when the heart/brain connection is interrupted. It's why strokes can cause crying (PBA) in some people. It's why battles are fought over God's earth.

Attempting to control others while not having a heart/brain connection takes one to hell. When only the mind is in charge, with no connection to the heart, we have Waco, Jonestown and Kody Brown, etc., etc., etc. Battle lines are drawn over possessions. People! Quit fighting over possessions!

I quit fighting over possessions and quit the system when I was just a young child. I had won something at school and when I went to collect, my teacher was gone and the new teacher said I didn't work hard enough to get it.

I did the extra work and got the panther hoodie, but was disgusted. I never wanted to fight for any possessions after that and because of other things that happened to me along the way. 

The only thing I have left is my freedom and it's all I want. However, with "toxic" femininity and masculinity being a thing, my freedom is actually precarious.

Just walking alone, as a woman, I'm constantly listening for footsteps, looking behind me, crossing the road if I have to. We have accepted the concept that men are predators and nobody is safe, because men are everywhere. 

Proud boys, proud mamas, proud presidents—so many people love predators and think women and children are disposable commodities. Obviously, men are treated the same way, but we also must recognize the imbalance.

I gladly give my possessions away now, because it makes somebody else happy. I buy native, handmade jewelry and other pieces from artists along the way and if somebody likes what I'm wearing, then I give it to them. I then have to find a replacement, which gives money to another artist.

I intensely dislike the concept of starving artist, so I sometimes give them extra for all their hard work. 

I gave a piece to a man in Hawaii and he cried. I didn't realize he was going through such a hard time, because he took a moment to compliment me about a piece of jewelry. He is such a sensitive soul and this world is so harsh.

What does all of this have to do with coffee? I think stimulants (especially cocaine) have no place in a society that is disconnected from the heart.
