Life by 2 bottles 1 of milk and 1 of wine

I just had this thought that we live our life with only the two bottles that i just mentioned. Now you might think what about water, food, home, car, ipod and a thousand thins more. Well, its a figure of speech that i use to categorize things that are there in our lives. By no means i’m plotting out an insanely vague picture of a nomad with two bottles in his hand.

First bottle is the bottle of milk, the bottle filled with neccessities of survival. The milk bottle holds all that we need in our life to live. Things we need, issues we have to handle, responsibilities we have to take care of and everything else under the sky that is related to a good human being who walks with a clean slate. The bottle of milk holds something we should drink daily in order to be who we are.

The second bottle is of the more tempting drink, wine. While milk is neccessity wine is pleasure in its pure form. Wine is there with us in order to keep us drinking milk. The fact is redundancy leads to a state of boredom and despair. Wine is there to break that chain of redundancy. Wine makes us forget the continuous intake of milk so that we don’t feel like puking the next time we drink milk. While milk makes do things at our potential, wine makes us come out of our skin and do things we couldn’t do normally. Its the state of ecstasy that makes you lose all your inhibitions.

Too much of milk has a solution called wine but what about too much of wine? When you drink from that pleasure bottle it takes you high and when you stop drinking eventually you start coming back to your normal state. Sometimes we drink too much and come down way too fast and end up in a state lower than our original state. What do we do in that situation? We use lemons!! Its easy to get your supply of milk and wine but lemons are hard to find because we don’t usually appreciate their value. But god is kindhearted so he always gives us lemons that bring us back to the realities of normal life when we are fallen.

One should always learn to strike balance between the two bottles or lives go into disarray. How many times have we seen people crave for milk because they were living just with wine for way too long and there cases where people go mad without wine. So strike your balance, fill your bottles, pocket your lemons safely and live a lovely life.
