Whenever I used to present toys or games to my tiny tot niece, she used to show more interest in the colorful cardboard boxes that carried those toys, instead of the pricey contents. I used to laugh it off as the silly nature of infants.
As I am learning these days, we are all akin to my little niece in our silly fantasies and fetishes. The marvellous blessing of Life has been bestowed on us. Instead of making the most of it, we are clinging to the shiny but cheap wrappers and boxes - religious identities, political affiliations, border affinities, stupid gossips, ego clashes, shiny gadgets, career identities, silly pursuits, along with all the resultant debates, disputes, bickering and senseless hatred!
What a world ours will be, if only we could all learn up, discard the cartons and embrace their contents - Life and the Love for it?! ❤️🙏
