The Power of Cappuccino

So I'm writing to you from Naples, Italy.  Its after midnight here, but early evening in the US. I just had to take a moment to talk about the power of cappuccino. My sensitivity to caffeine began in college (thanks Mountain Dew). Cappuccino is not for the weak. That little cup packs a punch!!! I'm not jittery, but I am fully awake. I started reminiscing about how wonderful this trip has been,  and how far I've come on my journey. But my first sip of coffee started in high school. I'll never forget. Purple Rain had just been released, and my friend took me to the Coventry Theater to see it. I was so deep into Prince that we made a point of wearing purple to the event.  Afterwards, we went to Arabica to get iced coffee. Mine was Mocha and I've been hooked ever since. Prince has had an influence in my life since I was 10 years old. I did my homework to his music, and play it loudly in my purple car. I went to as many concerts as I could, and even caught a pre-set during his 07.07.07 experience. What I can say is that Prince fans are family. Many people have started clubs and groups to honor his artistry. I've always heard about his late night sessions and parties at Paisley Park. I can only imagine him being driven by his craft...while envisioning everyone else needing a caffeine boost when it was over. Cappuccino brings family and friends together.  I can tell you the number of times I've walked these cobblestone streets and seen people taking a break with those they love. They sip those little cups very slowly... engaging in conversation and creating memories. I definitely feel my life has come full circle as I continue on my path to live the best life...the purple life. So how is your journey going? Can you remember when you first had coffee? Cappuccino? Do you remember who introduced you to Prince's music.  Take a moment for yourself.  Drink a cappuccino if need be and share your comments below. Thanks for stopping by.  Take Care and God Bless!!!
