Today in the cafe... life is so beautiful and so fucking horrible. I love the meaningful friendships that develop with our customers. You get to know their name, you get to know a little about their life. Sometimes they become friends, because their art is good or their sense of humor is good, or just damnit, they just seem good.
Have been blessed lately too with the most perfect co-workers. Life is beautiful.
And so fucking horrible.
Long time Team Awesome member M... her mother has been unwell for a long time. Proper unwell. M has also recently become properly unwell. It's shit that a kind and intelligent and caring 21 year old shouldn't have to go through. Good person with a heart of gold, she has had enough to contend with.
Then today she tells us that her 8 year old sister - who she adores - has some kind of aggressive brain tumour.
I really wish these people would get a break. They deserve a break. Give them a break, Universe, you fucking prick.
