Planet Earth

Alex finally looked up at Sergey, How is earth ? Can you tell me a little bit about it ? he asked the native of the planet Earth. It is beautiful, replied Sergey. More than ours, asked Alex with his eyes mimicking that of a child. Yes certainly, more than ours, laughed Sergey seeing that his partner asked him a question much like a child would. "Let me tell a bit more about our planet" There are large oceans and large mountains just like this . There are many people that inhibit it , just like this one. The animals roamed free. The ocean waves crashed the sands. And the people were all joyous? interrupted Alex. Not all, replied Sergey. Some were sat in thrones and some were left to fend for ourselves. Just like ours, again Alex Interrupted. You could say that , said Sergey and he continued "The women , I tell you , they were so beautiful, and had such beautiful eyes" Their eyes could start wars, and actually you would not believe me, wars were really fought for that reason. So are the women here , very Beautiful, said Alex. This time Sergey did not pause nor respond to his friend, he simply continued. And there were mothers and fathers watching their children play in the fields. There were uncles and aunts who visited your House for dinner and had a jolly good time. And many kids rode their cycles to school. They played with their friends in grounds and ran with kites. They were well fed and looked after, said Sergey , this time Alex could sense that there was a bit of sadness in his voice.

What's wrong , asked Alex. It sounded like you had all a good time. Sergey wiping the sadness in his voice. That is where the story differs. I was born an orphan , and I think I have told you that. I was left in the streets at a very young age. No one wanted to take responsibility of me. No one wanted to see me. They just wished I was gone. I had no relatives, I had no food on the table, I fought everyday to have a bite of bread. And I was not alone, there were countless others with me . They lived like me and they fought like me, and they became tough like me , Said Sergey to Alex. I do not think that our Galaxy could be so cruel, said Alex. No, confirmed Sergey. Your people and this Galaxy face the tough times together and enjoy the good times together. You stand together. At least when this story ends you will stand together. But I do not have such high hopes for my own planet , added Sergey. Our Greed has blinded our own very eyes.
Well is not Greed everywhere? asked Alex. It is everywhere comrade, but it does not win everywhere. And what makes me sad is that in Earth greed has won. That is not for you to tell Russian, Your planets story is not yet over, said Alex.
