Small moments can have a profound impact on the future from "summary" of Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi
In the bustling cafe where time travel is possible, customers come seeking to change their past or glimpse into their future. Each of them is drawn by a desire to alter the course of their lives, to mend broken relationships or make amends for past mistakes. However, they soon realize that the rules of time travel are strict, and changing the past comes with consequences. Through the stories of these customers, we see how small moments can have a profound impact on the future. A chance encounter, a fleeting conversation, or a simple gesture can alter the course of someone's life in ways they never imagined. These seemingly insignificant moments are like ripples in a pond, spreading out and creating a chain reaction that can change the course of history. One such story is that of Fumiko, who travels back in time to see her sister one last time before she succumbs to illness. In their brief reunion, they share a moment of understanding and forgiveness that changes the way Fumiko sees her past and her future. This small moment of connection has a ripple effect on her life, leading her to make choices she never thought possible. Another customer, Hirai, travels back in time to confront his younger self and make amends for a past mistake. In doing so, he learns that forgiveness is not just about seeking forgiveness from others, but also forgiving oneself. This realization sets him on a path of self-discovery and healing, transforming his future in ways he never thought possible. As we follow the stories of these customers, we see how the smallest moments can have a lasting impact on the future. Whether it's a moment of forgiveness, understanding, or connection, these small gestures can change the course of someone's life in ways they never thought possible. And in the end, we are reminded that it is often the smallest moments that have the biggest impact on our lives.
