Which one do you prefer?
Every one would say real flower.
[If you want to vouch for fake
flowers you would have to come forward and rationally justify yourself...you
are not allowed to pass a strong statement just for the sake of the shock value.]
But why do we
choose real flowers?
Is it because fake flowers are
tacky? Not any more...nowadays you get sublimely beautiful fake bouquets.
Is it because they don’t offer
the soft touch? Not nowadays...the velvety touch of fake flowers can leave us
trembling.
Is it because fake flowers don’t
emit fragrances? But tantalizingly perfumed artificial flowers are available
these days.
In fact fake flowers come in
better customized colours, feel softer to touch and emit fresher fragrances.
Then why is it that we long for
real flowers? Real flowers fade away, are vulnerable to external forces and
wither away within a finite period of time.
So it is the ephemeral nature of
the real flowers that catches our fancy.
Why do we willingly choose
transience over permanence?
May be because in life the real surges of overwhelming
emotions are temporary and feelings that we claim to be permanent are in all probability
fake...
