The old man had not caught any fish for the past 48 days. Everyone around him, except the young boy who believed in him, were laughing at him. He didn’t seem to mind and kept a smile on his face.

The ocean is like a golden blanket...

“Bird, you want to come to ride with me?” asked the man. The bird then showed him the direction and reaction of the ocean, for which the old man offered his thanks. Throughout the whole journey, he talked to the bird, the fish, the sky, the ocean... and his wrinkled hands, at the same time, respected the quality of silence.

Good luck... Good luck! He returned with the same smiling face plus a sense of divinity and humility, having touched an intangible strength beneath the human surface... a soaring-dove kind of energy... a great gain!

Is a great bird... an organic form!
