SHOBANA'S MUSINGS

Wine should be sipped in style, only then can you savor its taste. Just like life, one needs to go through the hard times, in order to appreciate the good.

But then, men have never learned. From the days of the bygone era till the present, men have not learned that greed belongs to wicked minds.

I say that because I see how amongst the beauty of the world, ugliness rears its head in every throe of life which stems from greed.

Greed to change the world to adhere to modern times has given in to grave consequences today. Look at how nature is being desecrated. Look at how Mother Nature is hitting back, There are so many catastrophes taking place throughout the world.

The rivers are running dry, the seas are filled with garbage, and the animals that have lived from the inception of the earth are extinct now while the ones that have made it to our times are treading towards the path to extinction. Aren't we displaced too?

And what about us humans, we go through life isolated from reality. Men still fight for autonomy over their lands, they infringe on other lands to show their power, they die for riches, and not live as they should. They forget that life is to be savored just like wine.

It takes years before the wine can appeal to tastebuds. And, it has to be stepped upon before its juice is preserved for drinking. It has to be stepped upon before the final residue is ready for enjoyment.

I think it is so reminiscent of what we go through today. The human race is cornered by the reckless actions of the past. They now try to redeem what they have lost. The right to freedom, peace, love, justice, and clamor to cherish the tranquility of a world in disarray.

I know that once peace has been compromised, it becomes an uphill task to retrieve it. The lack of peace will leave us bitter about life. Peace of mind is so important, especially right now.

What would you do to have inner peace, share peace with the rest of the world, seek peace of tranquility, or be at peace with people around you?

Cheers to that mind-numbing glass of wine and its connotations to the life of a human.
