The Cup of Coffee (Narration)

There was once a group of alumni who visited their old professor. Minutes later, they started to talk about their stress in work and about their families. Their professor came and brought them a large pot of coffee together with his cups of various kinds: porcelain, plastic and glass cups. Each alumni served themselves and make their own coffee. All of them chose the porcelain and expensive cups while the plastic cups remained untouched. Then the professor said, "Life can also be that cup of coffee." Someone immediately asked him curiously, "Why did you say so sir?". He said that its normal for us to chose the expensive and material things but it doesn't add any quality to our life just like the cup of  coffee. We must live simply, love truly and taste the true meaning of life.
