Today, Henry started our morning meeting by reading from the book Emperor’s Handbook written by Marcus Aurelius.  The message was about “reserving its judgments and adapting to change.” Our morning discussion was about sharing. We questioned what sharing meant to all of us. We talked about sharing between family members and strangers, as well as sharing material things and non-material things such as time. After the morning meeting we went to pick coffee in the Don Marcelino Mamani’s coffee plantation. Some of us tasted some “miel” (sweet coffee juice that surrounds coffee berries). It was quite tasty.  We picked a couple of pounds of dark red coffee berries, and watched how coffee is processed. Lucio was very knowledgeable about coffee. He explained how coffee is grown and processed. Latter, we enjoyed a cup of cappuccino at Lucio’s café while listening to Juan Valencia, a current president of the coffee cooperative – Cencoop, talk about the economic aspects of coffee. Today, we learned a lot about coffee, heard stories of coffee growers, and experienced how much of hard hand labor takes to prepare an aromatic cup of coffee that most of us savor every morning.
