It’s all in the title. You know the sprite I’m talking about. You’re driving home from work on a mid-summer evening and you just have to stop. You pull through the McDonald’s drive through and order a single item. A large sprite. You can already taste it. It’s going to be everything you need to shock hope for humanity back into you.
You pull up to the window and get the cup full of electric hope, quickly stabbing your straw into the cup. Giving the employee a weary smile, you pull away to enjoy the hope as you finish your drive home.
That first sip, oh, that first sip. It sends volts of electric hydration through your body. You scrunch your face as if you just bit in to a lemon. Your body feels more alive in that moment than it has in the past 3 weeks. You feel your hope meter refilling and feel ready to face the rest of the week.
It’s such a small thing but it can do so much. Remember to take small moments for yourself. Self care is important, even if it’s just spicy sprite.
Until next time – spicy sprite for all.
