I think the main reason why watermelons are sweet and attractive is that you can eat them in many ways you want. I mean, sometimes I meet with people who don’t like watermelon. But I never understood why they didn’t like it. A fruit that is sweet enough, healthy, red and huge. How much better could it be? Going back to the topic of why people don’t like watermelon, I think everyone has the right to have their own opinion, no matter how ridiculous it is. So, what if it was different?
I guess I don’t have a definitive answer to this question. For example, if I ask myself why I like this fruit so much, of course, I have an answer. But why do I think the answer I gave is the most understandable and logical?
For example, if we think about it, we can’t always love life, right? Consider this situation just as an example. When we compare Watermelon and Life, of course, everyone understands the difference between them. But if we think of the concept of Life as just a word and an object, we cannot love life all the time, right? So why can’t I, who has always loved watermelon and am sure that I love watermelon, feel the same when I think about the concept of life?
Sometimes, even though I act the way I want, the way I am comfortable, my thoughts restrict my actions. When life hurts a little, I immediately withdraw. I think several times when taking responsibility. Then taking responsibility becomes a big thing for me. I guess I’m making it too big in my head.
Does happiness last forever? If they asked me, I would say it won’t last. Even though I don’t even remember why I said that or why I thought so much about the question I was asked at that moment, a small part of my brain believed that happiness could last forever. It seems like we attach great importance to sentences and words. We attach too much meaning to it. I don’t mean to say it doesn’t make sense. Although I don’t want to explain anything to anyone reading this article and say that you should do this or that it would be better if you did that. When I think of myself as just a human being, I think of everyone as connected. Just think about it, we know that there are many reasons for many diseases or problems or depression we experience today, right? Because before, a person in another part of the world already felt like us. For this reason, famous thinkers wrote down their own thoughts. -By the way, I don’t see myself as a “thinker”- I think I want to continue the sharing that words have brought to us.
Even though I know that I am bad at memory and that my head is in the clouds most of the time, there are many situations and moments that I cannot forget or that I try hard not to forget. Even though I don’t remember every moment when I felt happy and comfortable, at least I think I lived my life happily enough and in my own way. I think living according to yourself is the greatest favor you can do for yourself.
Watermelons are one of the great favors you can do for yourself. Just give this fruit a chance, I’m sure you’ll understand what I mean when you eat or taste it. You don’t need to finish all the fruit or force yourself, just try to enjoy this beautiful gift.
