There i was, sitting alone at the old bench
at the dark alley. The place is only touched by the blinking Christmas light, red blue and yellow. That's the only light resource at the ally has. The street light is broken and smashed. It probably by some wrongdoing by the youngsters.
I was waiting for someone to follow my friends to pick me up. As I was waiting and waiting, I saw a homeless guy laying on the other bench while looking up at the sky gazing at the star and followed with a smile. I was thinking and curious either the homeless guy is normal or not I don't know and I don't have any clue.

But imagine, what if a homeless guy...
is happier than us? They can live anywhere they want, they have the freedom to do anything. Travel with bear feet, nothing to worry about. What if they build their own little shack that more comfortable than us? Living 24 hours with no stress, food grew their own veggies corps. Its vacation for them for their whole life. They are living the life not like us, We are trapped in a circle of life that we build our own self. Becoming zombies to big corporates, modern-day slaves, we buy what we don't need to buy, we've been told that we need to buy this and that and claim that product can make us happy but the matter of fact is its not. Having something isn't happy but needs. There's a words that we need to keep asking on our daily life's.
Appearance vs Reality
For example, you are thirsty and you need to drink which do you choose? Coca-cola or plain water? The answer is, either way, it still water. The differences is the appearances. Why do you need Iphone8? when you have functional iphone7?
Its the basic thing on our lives we tend to forget. We buy things that we don't really need. Showing off isn't the "LIVING THE LIFE"
