Mangoes have always held a special place in my heart. Ever since I can remember, they've been my favorite fruit. Everything about mangoes is amazing—their vibrant color, luscious texture, and unparalleled sweetness. While I enjoy strawberries, pineapples, and watermelons, no other fruit compares to the mango.

Tonight, after dinner, as I savored a juicy mango, a thought crossed my mind: what if one day I fell seriously ill, and the doctors told me I could never eat mangoes again, or else I might die? Even in such a dire scenario, I don't think I could give up mangoes. I would choose to enjoy them, even if it meant risking my life. At least I would die peacefully, happily, and satisfied, knowing I had one of my favorite things until the end.

This led me to ponder a deeper question: if an alcoholic is told that continuing to drink could kill them, yet they can't resist the urge, are they any different from someone like me who can't give up mangoes despite potential health risks? Both scenarios highlight an inability to control desires, whether it's for alcohol or mangoes. Does this make us equal in our weaknesses? Is there no difference between an alcoholic and someone who can't stop eating mangoes despite their health?

While the comparison may seem extreme, it underscores a common human trait: the struggle to balance pleasure with well-being. For an alcoholic, the allure of alcohol is tied to addiction, a condition that can devastate their health and lives. For a mango lover like me, the attachment to the fruit is more about sheer enjoyment and nostalgia. Both scenarios involve a deep-seated connection to something that brings immense pleasure, albeit with different consequences.

Another aspect of my mango obsession is my disdain for eating them at relatives' houses. The formality that accompanies eating mangoes in such settings ruins the experience for me. I prefer to enjoy mangoes like a child, shamelessly and with pure, unfiltered joy. The best way to eat a mango is with reckless abandon, savoring every bite and letting the juice run down your chin. It's an experience that touches my soul deeply and brings out a sense of childlike wonder and happiness.

Whether it's a mango or something else, these little joys make life worth living. And while it's essential to balance pleasure with health, sometimes, it's these very indulgences that give our lives meaning and color. So, as long as I can, I'll continue to eat mangoes with abandon, cherishing every moment of bliss they bring.
