Life is like a cup of coffee


I have posted an article in my Persian weblog which is about the life, "Life is like a cup of coffee". I decided to translate it to English and now this is the English version of that article.

Five graduated students went to see their tutor after 4-5 years . They went to his office and talked about their life. Everyone complained about his life, his job, family and all negative things. During this time the tutor was making coffee, he left the coffee with 6 different cups on the table,plastic cup,glass, paper cup ....different size,shape and colour.Each of them took a cup,filled it with gorgeous coffee. They were five and one disgusting cup had left on the table. Our old,experienced teacher told to his students:" Now you are drinking coffee and each of you tried to choose the best cup or mug for yourself, and the worst cup is still on the table". they were surprised by tutors sentences . He continued : "You were looking to drink coffee ,not the cups but tried to choose the best cup comparing with your friends' mug . Life is like coffee; your social position, salary and job is like the cup. The cup could change the outlook but coffee is still coffee with no changes. In the real life is the same, you can change your life with luxury and beautiful stuff but you can not change your life . You should enjoy the taste of your life (coffee),but if you just focus of the cups you will lose your life.

However you can enjoy your coffee (life) with beautiful cups.Try to make your life comfortable but don't forget and don't waste your life.
