Two sides of a Coin

Posted on by Reena Saxena

“Man cannot replicate or compete with nature”.

“Mankind often overpowers nature, for both good and bad.”

“I don’t see any good in what you say”.

Veronica smiled. She could never win over her sister Valerie with logic. Yet, they relied on each other for emotional support.

“Val, look at it this way.

I never learnt how to swim, but I can move through water at high speed in a motorboat or submarine.

I have no skills for flight or wings to skim the waves effortlessly, like the wind itself. But an aeroplane gives me a feel of victory over the sky.”

“Tell me about AR, VR and AI now…” was Val’s sarcastic response.

“So, you’ve read enough about it?” She smiled.

“These fads will eventually disappear.”

“Let them do so. Enjoy the wave while you can. We’ll go back to the forests after that.”
