“L-Ahrax tal-Mellieha” – a remarkable zone. A clean, pure place where to walk, inhale the smell of the sea, relax, and admire the natural beauty. But look closely. Are you seeing this pure thing is stained? Yes I can see one stain. . . . . and another . . . . and another . . . . and another! Pity! How can we humans not enjoy the beauty without staining it? Why do we dispose of our car / bike / rubbish in our pristine countryside? Why do we put our mark on building? Can’t we realise we are staining our own lives? At times we don not look closely enough to realise the damage we are doing. This place is an example from many. We live in a remarkable world but we do not appreciate its purity and uniqueness, so we end up staining it with unwanted waste.
