10:55 AM: Walk to class on a rainy Thursday. Spot a lonely green mug abandoned at the entrance of a college dorm. Wonder why college students leave cups in random locations.
2:30 PM: Walk out of the library. Spot a lonely purple mug cowering at the base of a lamp post.
2:31 PM: What should I do with these mugs that are clearly unfit to survive in the wilderness of Peabody Esplanade?
2:31 PM: Brain- “You should return them to the dining hall, obviously.”
2:32 PM: Heart- “They are clearly soulmates separated by unfortunate circumstances and a wide expanse of sidewalks. You must give these star-crossed lovers a chance to live happily ever after.”Â
2:37 PM:Â Heart wins.
I know these mugs are technically in perfectly good condition, but if cups had spirits, theirs would be broken. I like to think they found some happiness at last.
