Story: "The Man Who Made Me Cry"

I once thought I was the sky when I was young,

Carrying the world with pride between my ribs...

"I'm the smart one... I'm the role model... I'm the star!"

Until I wept—and my own eyes asked me: "What happened?"

Then I poured out like a river:

"I became a man... and my dreams vanished like mist.

My weakness defeated me before mountains could crumble!

And the people... some were shocked... some burned with grief...

All are waiting... but what should I say?

Should I tell them life taught me that summits humble those who climb with arrogance?

That tears are the only language the soul understands when falling from its heights?"
