But now the coffee bean has been used up. The next brew will be weak. Nice try, though. :)

Or am I like the coffee bean? The bean actually changes the hot water - the very circumstance that brings the adversity, the pain, the hardship – into something quite wonderful. When the water gets hot, it releases it's fragrance and flavor. If you are like the bean, when things are at their worst, you get better, and change the situation around you for the better.

I agree with you. The coffee isn't what I'd want to be. The coffee turns nice clear healthy water into poo color. Sure, it smells nice at first but after a day or so of sitting around it molds and needs to be thrown out. It also becomes a crutch where you can't function without it like government gimmies. The coffee is too much like hussein with all his glorious promises and changes but it's all rotting lies that needs to be flushed. The carrot helps you see through the dark times and the egg can change to fit the situation but the more you mess with it the stronger it gets. Both are better than the coffee.
