If I were not a...

If I were not a Human Being…….

I would like to be born as a Lotus Plant, on the soft and moist lake-bed. A symbol of purity and divinity, I would lead a short but meaningful life.

Breathing in the air from the waters of the lake, I would become an adult. Stretching from the depths of the lake-floor, reaching out for the sunlight, I would reach to the surface and bloom. As a sapling, I would have very little use, but as I grow so do my usefulness. Starting from my stem, reaching to my petals, each part of my body has some use.

My stem, can be cooked and is a delicacy for many. My leaves, are used for serving food. Here I compete with the plantain leaves, which are also used for serving food. However, my leaves are treated as a royalty, since they are difficult to obtain. My flowers, are treated as a symbol of divinity and sacredness. They are used for the worship of the God Almighty. What more would I want from my life? Being placed at the feet of the Almighty and reaching to that place is the ultimate goal of any life. I purify the waters in the lake and make them safe for my fellow water inhabitants.

This is how I would like my life to be, being useful. As a human, I would like my life to have some meaning. I would like my life and body to be useful to others whether I am alive or dead. So applying this, this is how I would want my life to be, even when I am not a human being.
With lots of love,
Madhu Vamsi....
