He looked up into a blue sky, and observed the beautiful land surrounding him. He went out to find food. He came back to his healthy family. In the blink of an eye, he looked up into a blue sky he might never see again, he observed the beautiful land that was no longer his. He turned to his poor family, and back at the food that was not his anymore. He soon saw nothing, no family, no home, no land.
