"He medido mi vida con cucharitas de café."

T. S. Eliot

Simplified Meaning:

This quote suggests that the person's life feels small and repetitive, almost like counting out grains of sugar or using the same spoon over and over. Imagine a man who goes to the same coffee shop every day, orders the same drink, and sits in the same spot. His days blend together, and his life starts to feel predictable and dull. Instead of having grand adventures or big changes, he's stuck in a routine that doesn't bring much excitement or fulfillment. This feeling can make someone reflect on how they've spent their time and consider making changes to add variety and new experiences. To break free from this monotonous cycle, one might take up a new hobby, travel to a new place, or try something they've never done before. This way, life can feel richer and more rewarding, not just measured out in small, unchanging units.
