The world shone through his eyes. He was filled with love for everything and everyone. Mountains, and fields of green stretching beyond where the eyes could see. Lying on the velvet green carpet of grass, the clouds against the deep blue skies carried him off to another land where the imagination became reality. This was heaven. Where else could it be at? Here, he was safe from the harshness of the real world, safe from all the harm that could hurt him.

The night skies were filled with stars, so many, it seemed the entire sky just couldn't contain them. The occasional distant rumbling of the town train never woke him from his sleep. Instead, it seemed comforting and served as a little reminder of the outside world. When he slept, he felt like the whole world slept with him. He only knew good, evil was non-existent. He only had love to give, he hasn't learnt how to hate.

In his world, it was uncorrupted, so untouched by the modern world it was painfully clean. Technology spoilt none of its beauty, robbed none of its dignity. The animals that roamed the land were his friends, the trees were his parents, who whispered words of comfort during sleepless nights. Water flowed down from the high mountains, providing water so rich so sweet. Food came in the form of fruits, a variety of tastes. He was living in a land of goodness.

He was living a life of a good man. But if only he knew.

Warning: The following material is extremely explicit and offensive in nature. But read it anyway.

Garlic. The garlic restaurant calls it the lily bulbs. I prefer to call it smells-like-shit. I mean seriously, like why. Why would anyone even attempt at tasting that thing? You know there's this syndrome known to doctors for centuries but nobody ever admits it? I've heard it's called the see-a-garlic-and-have-afit. Such a complex name. Let me explain what it means. Basically, in very general and non-complex terms, it means that when you see a garlic, you have a fit. Phew! Medical stuff's really tough don't you think?

Studies are also going on about how garlic ought to be considered as the world's most lethal foodstuff. Modern day scientists believe that everyone, including garlic lovers, have certain limits as to how much becomes too much. They are devicing new methods of punishments for criminals that include (A) Soaking the guilty into a tub full of mashed garlic and leave him there for ten days. They believe the smell would've knocked him/her out by the 5th hour. The pain and suffering of waking up and losing conciousness in a tub of mashed garlic is un-word-able. [ie. cannot be described in words.]

Take my word of advice. Never get too close to a garlic, because they reek of B.O.. And that people, is the killer.
