EMPTY WINE BOTTLES
You are born. You grow, you learn. You learn, you grow. And so, your life progresses. You meet people, others, like you. At first, all your peers are small, like you. Others, the teachers, are bigger. You soon become your own person, with likes, and dislikes, friends and foes. You are still learning, because, that is the way of things.
If you are lucky, you love, and are loved back by someone. You relate to them in a way like no other. Life progresses. Perhaps you help create little ones that resemble you, children of your own, and the learning begins anew. You become the teacher..............
....................Your life begins to slow. The learning process continues, but with greater and greater difficulty. Your memories fade, as do your relationships with friends, and family. After a time, you are drained of wisdom, knowledge, and feelings. Like an empty wine bottle, you have no more to give.
