Aside from boredom, I think cups are fancy. I love a see-through glass of  \nwine - fragile, yet strong enough to make a sound when tapped. Transparent enough for you to watch the wine trickle to its brim as it’s being poured.  \nBut have you ever heard the sound of a broken glass?  \nSo gentle, yet unexpectedly loud.  \nAnd suddenly, the only place you can really see it is when you look down.  \nNo longer fancy. No longer fragile in a way you can safely hold. The kind of fragile you don’t want to touch, because while the glass itself doesn’t bleed, the person trying to pack it up might.  \nLet’s not really talk about that.  \nWhat I love most about cups is that each one is created to serve a different purpose. I once saw someone pull out a mug for wine. I could bet she had, at some point, sipped hot tea from a wine glass too. Purpose.  \nI think every living and non-living thing has that. Purpose.  \nWhich is why I believe the day you figure out what you can’t live without, is the day you begin to understand why you’re actually living.  \nHave you ever sat and stared at a cup, like I said before? And while at it, maybe a question pops","cbCaifVtnxpcJTNI","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifVtnxpcJTNI","pdf",1196817,1,119,"English","en",105,"# Acknowledgement\n# How do you pour from an empty cup?\n# Just Breathe\n# I’m still talking to me, 15 years ago\n# Understanding And Overcoming Anxiety And Depression\n# What If\n# Lies!
