So, Is it a Grind?

It's a Grind is the name of the place,
and perhaps the name of your life sometimes,
but when you stop and take a chance,
and make someone else on the inside, dance,
it may be different and feel weird at first,
and it might sound a bit like work,
but all it took was a few dollars, an exchange of words,
and a little white tag,
to produce two coffee drinks,
which made a mother and son glad,
so, next time,
when you think your regular routine needs some spice,
maybe you could think about doing something nice?

Mita,
There is freshness in your reflections/travelogue,
Your words breathe life in the streets of Mountain View,
Your compassion and generousity will melt many hearts,
Not only because you are my beti, but you are also a good soul and life is not always just a grind.
