Philosophical Tales of Athanasia (ENG)
In the Village That Never Had a River
There was once a village by a river
Each day the people drank from it — clear, plain, refreshing
Until one day, someone said :
“This water tastes salty, like the sea”
Everyone laughed, for when they drank it was still plain
But as the words spread, some began to murmur:
“Yes, perhaps a trace of salt”
The next morning, a few refused to drink
That night, some stopped washing their clothes in it
The day after, more nodded in agreement
At last, the whole village spoke with one voice:
“This is salt water”
And the river became a lake
Salt clung to every sip; no vessel drew it differently
The next generation grew up never knowing the river
When told, “Once this lake was a river,”
they laughed as if at a fable—for in their world, no such thing as “river” had ever existed
To them, those stories were no different from speaking of a sky without blue, or a shadow without light
And that laughter, repeated again and again,
layered over the old truth
until all that remained was a legend
no one could understand
