HAVE YOU EVER TRIED MEDITATING?

SOUNDS LIKE A LOT OF WORK.

IT IS THE OPPOSITE OF WORK.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SIT IN ONE PLACE AND THINK OF NOTHING IN PARTICULAR.

CAN I DRINK COFFEE AT THE SAME TIME?

THAT IS NOT RECOMMENDED.

IN OTHER WORDS, MEDITATING IS WHAT I ALREADY DO, BUT WITHOUT THE ADVANTAGE OF COFFEE?

PERHAPS YOU HAVE ALREADY ACHIEVED ENLIGHTENMENT.

FEELS THAT WAY TO ME.
