Book . Tales from the Cafe

I read the first book in 2022 and it took me awhile to have the courage to read the 2nd book because of emotions and feelings. The moment I decided to continue reading it was in August and I thought that I will finish it sooner but I end up reading at the end October due to some distraction the past 2 months. Now that I don't have a distraction anymore, I prefer not holding phone in bed and somehow still trying to pick up the kindle to make some progress with my book shelf. 

Back to the book, well again with the question where you want to go back if given a chance before the coffee gets cold to the present or the future? 

I have a different answer this time and this can change tomorrow or the next day or the next year but for now I want to travel to the future. I somehow already accepted that I can't go back to the past just to change some things, I already have regrets even I was trying to live without regrets. Future is scary and as I’m somehow losing hope with all the negativity and feeling of hopelessness, I just want to see what happened to me in the future maybe 10 years from now? 

Sometimes the only thing that makes me going is because I want to see what it will be after all these years of heartbreak, happiness, disappointments, will there be drastic change to this country or we are just going to be worst than what we have today. At times, it’s not the personal stuff anymore because from a very good environment I’m sure that all of our lives will be affected and everything will follow a good path. 

To see the future is not as scary as I think about right now. 

Time is moving so fast and the way I want to see a lot of things in the future, my coffee will probably be cold as ice already and I’ll probably the next ghost reading a book. 

Unfortunately, going back to the past or going to the future is not possible with our reality, so live in the present always. 

The last story of this book made me cry. 

Rated this 4 stars in Goodreads.

We can never truly see into the hearts of others. 

When people get lost in their own worries, they can be blind to the feelings of those most important to them.
