After brewing coffee on to their floor, most people would spend twenty minutes swearing. I spent those twenty minutes laughing at myself.

Energy is a currency. You can spend it on rage. You can spend it on amusement. The cleanup takes the same amount of time either way.

The "So What?" factor. I had to remake the coffee. That is the whole tragedy. Small things like this aren’t worth wasting negative energy on.

Stories over disasters. A mess is just a story you haven't told yet. Laughing creates a pleasant moment out of a liquid disaster.

Life’s too short to rage at spilled coffee, especially when there’s more coffee to make.
