War for colas!!!

I want to give a different review on colas! Because there is still a ongoing war between my mind and intellect about should I drink it or not! But thank god my intellect wins most of the battles of this war! I will tell you how this proceeds! The review is for all soft drinks even though I target it on coke. As coke is the brand a may drink if I had to!The dilemma in recommending this product is resolved as a result of my intellect winning over my mind! I am going to give you how the mind will give deceiving words and how the intellect counteracts these statements with logic but in a plain manner.At the end I will give my comments on this.So here we go.

**First as usual the devil(My mind) speaks:**

Man! Its a hot day! look how tired you are.Isn’t that your mouth goes dry.I think you need some refreshment.(slowly it will take you to its target).Let me say Why not have a bottle of coke!It will refresh you.(Then it makes me think! I will think is it worth drinking a bottle of cola.What will that give me.Is it safe to drink cola as there is a big pesticide controversy revolving around it.Why should I take a chance I can just resolve this by drinking a glass of nice cold water) STOP! Stop thinking! Why think a lot on such things.ok I will tell you how it goes.To start it costs just about Rs.5.is a glass of water tasteeee.Taste gives you satisfaction man.mental satisfaction is more important.right!So what are you waiting for.Pesticides is of little concern man.Everything you eat has some pesticides in it! All food materials from the rice and wheat you eat has pesticides.the tea and coffee you drink has pesticides.The sugar you put in it has pesticides.To tell you more water you drink be it ground water or mineral water has pesticides.And these things have more pesticides than the colas. Not one or two times more but even 600 to 1000 times greater.Did you die.So there is no harm.We cant analyse everything we do.If you fear for even drinking this how can you live.Everyday life has lots of risk.just drink it!Saying these flashy words it lures you with.

**In the middle of hot day**

**When your pretty mouths go dry**

**Hear what your heart says**

**"Have some Coca Cola"**

**Can a jug of water**

**make your heart feel lighter**

**To make your heart fly higher**

**have some Coca Cola!**

**Now the Intellect speaks:**

I wont give you flashy words. All I can give you is truth. If you take it good.else suffer the consequences.You can have a glass of water which costs you nothing or you can have a cola for Rs.5.yes Rs.5 is not a big money but is it worth giving for a bottle filled with water, some sugar and some gas.Will the cost of producing this be greater than 50 paisa. Is is worth giving more than 10 times the amount.You are just paying for the commercials and the actors who are telling you to buy something worth Rs.0.50 at Rs.6.Now moving on.Yes pesticides are greater in other things that we eat and drink.But those are our basic requirements that we cannot avoid.but this is not something very important so it is better you avoid it.There are many other harms by drinking it  ( **Some claim it can even lead to major kidney problems if you are a frequent drinker**).And one more thing.**Is it right way to justify yourselves by pointing to others mistakes and saying " They are committing a bigger offence so why cant I commit a minor one?" That is what the companies say.Is it wrong to expect something for the money that you pay?** Think and take your decision.

**My comments:**

Now this is exactly what happens in me.Some times the mind may win over the intellect.I don’t find any harm one drinking colas rarely.Because we are not machines to act only by our intellect.But drinking it frequently can lead to other problems.It is wise to avoid these by not taking it frequently.If we can strike that balance that’s it!You can justify not only this but any other problem by just thinking for a minute or so and thus avoid we being carried away by our mind.

Hope you like it!
