So much for being top rated
Tuesday, August 11th, 2009For those that are in the know about coffee makers, clover espresso machine is one of the best there is when it comes to coffee makers. It can be said to be among best of the top rated coffee makers (at more than $11 000, it better be right!).
Anyway, this machine was available in a coffee house in town and we all went to try the supposedly spectacular brew that it is able to do. The result was a dismay.
Not because the coffee was not good, or the machine did not deliver up to expectation, far from it, the coffee is really smooth and delievers great taste.
But, the experience was far from good. Firstly, it was crowded, and then because the shop want to attain maximum turn over, the staff come to us every few minutes asking us if we wanted more drinks (trying to get us to hurry up).
This spoils it all. We were there because we wanted to savor and enjoy the coffee, but alas, there was no such experience.
Don’t you think this is much like life? You can have all the best in life, good education, great look, nice cloths and superb career, but yet leave no impact and even negative impact on those around you.
Life after all is about living and living meant interaction and being part of a larger community.
Similar to the coffee house, it does not matter what you have, it is what you are able to give! If you have the best but is not impacting the community in any way, what is the point of having them?
If I am drinking a coffee that is from the most expensive machine, but have to do it within minutes, what is the different does it has from a cup of instant coffee?
Think about what is top rated, it might not be what you think all along…
