Valuable

This is one of my favorite photographs clicked by me.


You may be wondering what is so special about this simple photograph of one silver plate?
Answer:
It is not a silver plate.
Remember William Shakespeare's quote 'All that glitters is not ...' .

To help you a bit; let me give you a hint.
This is not a silver plate but something much more valuable than it.

OK. If you haven't guessed it yet, here is the answer.
It is a top view of glass of water. [:)]

Then why did I said that it is more valuable than silver?
Because one cannot survive without water but silver is not a necessity.

Many a times we ignore the importance of things that are readily available to us. In Sanskrit we call this 'अतिपरिचयात अवज्ञा'(Atiparichayat avadnya).

Let us understand that economic 'value' of something do not determine its real 'value'. In fact most of the valuable things in life comes free or they are very inexpensive.
