Your coffee cup is like a friend who\u2019s always there for you. But, could it be more than just that? Some would say yes. If you&#8217;re a fan of the centuries-old tradition of fortune telling by coffee, here&#8217;s five pressing things your morning cup of joe is just dying to tell you. <\/p>\n<p>  <b><big><big>1. Mabrouk! <\/b><\/big><\/big><br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mashable.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Tangled.gif\" width=\"100%\"><br \/>  (Image via <a href=\"https:\/\/mashable.com\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">Mashable<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>  Your prince charming is on his way, or your amazing princess. It really depends on who you are. Either way, there&#8217;s a relationship involved. And who knows &#8211; you might even get married! The cup reader can see it in the shadow on the bottom of the cup. Either that, or it&#8217;s an old stain that won&#8217;t go away. Who am I to judge? <\/p>\n<p>  <b><big><big>2. Lucky You! You\u2019re Going on a Trip.<\/b><\/big><\/big><br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mashable.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/Loki.gif\" width=\"100%\"><br \/>  (Image via <a href=\"https:\/\/mashable.com\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">Mashable<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>  Your coffee cup just revealed the mountains you&#8217;re going to cross, the amazing adventures you&#8217;re going to encounter, and of course, the successes and failures you&#8217;re going to endure &#8212; that we all are eventually going to endure &#8212; you can be sure of that.<\/p>\n<p>  <b><big><big>3. I\u2019m Sorry, But\u2026 <\/b><\/big><\/big><br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/YrRnJBv.gif\" width=\"100%\"><br \/>  (Image via <a href=\"https:\/\/Tumblr.com\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">Tumblr<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>  You&#8217;re going to die. Someone you love is going to die. It\u2019s true that eventually we&#8217;re all going to die, BUT when your cup says it&#8230; it means it&#8217;s definitely going to happen. And s\/he\u2019s Lebanese. I\u2019m not sure if it&#8217;s because of the ongoing conflicts or endless bombings, but as a Lebanese person, you start to see death in everything.<\/p>\n<p>  <b><big><big>4.

You lack motivation. And mostly, you lack the Lebanese Superstition gene. You don\u2019t believe in cup reading. Sure, you trust your favorite politician,  but noooo, not your coffee cup.<\/p>\n<p>  <b><big><big>5. You\u2019re Getting Fired!<\/b><\/big><\/big><br \/>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/GnvysCm.gif\" width=\"100%\"><br \/>  (Image via <a href=\"https:\/\/Tumblr.com\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">Tumblr<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>  That trip you\u2019re going on is called getting fired. And the death you fear is that of your career, unless you get going now, and stop trying to figure out what your coffee grounds are trying to tell you. If there\u2019s one thing I\u2019m sure your coffee cup forsees, it&#8217;s this: it&#8217;s \u201crou7 2ra shi yenfa3\u201d (go read something beneficial).
