Defense mechanisms #1

I find it odd to have a sweet tooth and yet be a complete coffee addict. It's satisfying to sip on something one should normally find repulsive based on usual preferences. And that's exactly how our defenses work.
'Cause you see, we're all pessimists.

I'm not going to say we're suckers for pain. For tragic love stories, hurting goodbyes and endless heartbreaks. No. Who'd wish that?
But you know what's surreal? Joy. That flicker in the middle of nowhere gets you thinking if it's real. If it'll last or if you should even consider enjoying it. That's how we kill our own smile. Expecting the worst 'cause trashed hopes tear you down faster than a lightning bolt.

So yes, a cup of caffeine is the best comfort zone.
