The Drowning Of A Goldfish - Redux

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

The Drowning of a Goldfish is a do or die story with a happy ending. Won’t it be smart to learn how this can be done? Once upon a time there was an enchanting little girl with a pink bow in her blond locks born with a silver spoon in her mouth, whose future was lying open before her, a broad sunny highway to happiness. Then all broke down, neither by hers nor by anybody else’s fault but by shere "historical necessity", as ideologists call it. The girl understands that to stay afloat she has not only to fight for it but also to agree to some compromising. Her main problem will be how far she can go without going too far; how many values she has to foreclose and still stay whole. The Drowning of a Goldfish is a story of a girl who succeeds to hold firm in turbulent times, of a girl that "can keep her head when all about her are losing theirs and blaming it on her". The Drowning of a Goldfish is the story of a survival that has its price. (The quote above is modified from the poem “IF” by Rudyard Kipling)
