In the poem, "Hubris at Zunzal," Rodney Jones is arging the pain he gets from losing something he loves. When he dumped the alcohol and coconut milk into the sounding sea, he regretted what he did. He realized how much he loved that drink. It proves the fact that one really doesn't know what he had until it was gone.
In life, everyone takes people for granted. One little mistake can cause a friendship or relationship to be ruined forever. It is important to be mindful, always thinking before doing or saying something that has hurt another. That person who was always there for you may not be there the next morning. But the truth of the matter is, we all know exactly what we have. We just don't want to face the cold hard truth that it can be lost in the blink of an eye because of one mistake.
