If Walls Could Talk

I had a wonderful meeting tonight with a dear friend. We had coffee. It was refreshing, and I don't just mean the coffee.

Lots of things are said over coffee. If Starbucks' walls could talk I bet they would have a lot to say. Actually, I bet the walls of coffee houses across America keep hidden more wisdom than we could imagine. They sit in silence as many shadowey secrets are whispered across tables. They soak in stories full of truth. I'm sure many lies have slithered across their surfaces too. Thankfully they listen like a faithful friend, and then never make a peep so that we can safely return time and again. Cheers to the walls of coffee houses and to friends who truly know us.

  1. So true. Just spent several days at a Bible lectureship with several trips to the local coffe house (pics posted on my blog about it). One of my grad profs used to say some of the best work with others is done over a cup of coffee.
