Okay. Let me share a bit more about what the picture meant to me.
Some of our lives are like the coffee cup? (yes it is coffee). Bitter, plain, just a regular cup. All around are the colors, the messiness, the distractions we sometimes have. While we continue to be just a regular cup of coffee. Nothing more. And definitely less. Time passes, and still some of us remain shadowed by the vibrancy of what we yearn to have.
And it's interesting how to everyone, the background is distracting, and the "subject" is boring. Yes, that's how some of us feel.
Or don't we?
