From Becoming to Being

First, I thought I'd become a drunkard. Then an idea came to me: why not to become wine itself? Then I thought, where does wine go? In the glass. So I thought of becoming a glass. Then a question came to me: from a glass where does wine go? It goes in my mouth and makes me mad. Therefore, I thought of becoming a madman. I pondered and wondered: BECOMING a madman..! Nonsense..! BEING a madman is better than

 becoming a madman. ..........................................

And ultimately a ray of wisdom glittered in me: Just 'being' is far better than being 'this' and 'that'.
