I'm on the road in Raleigh, NC and spending some time working in a coffee shop called Helios. I appreciate the randomness of coffee shops, third places, where part of the charm is the serendipitous nature, where the melting pot of people, music, smells, and conversation will never be the same again. It's an ever-shifting dynamic where the ebb and flow of people energize and change the vibe as the day goes along.I think it is an interesting commentary on society, how grabbing a $2 drink (or more, if you go for designer caffeine) can result in new friendship, renewed relations or an escape from life. Or business opportunity. And how the melting pot makes the character of a place.
