The Little Prince (8) The Prince's crying (HJ Lee)

Chapter 16~20

7th Planet The Earth
 
 
     The prince arrived on the Earth in desert. The prince met several things like a sanke, a flower, Ecoes, lots of roses.
I hope write about some conversations he talked in the desert in chapter 16~20. The conversations have some similarities to live us.
 
 
A Snake
 

 I'm intersting in about two conversation of snake which the prince meet first on the Earth and the prince.

1.
The prince : "It is a little lonley in the desert..."
The snake : "It is also lonely among men."

2.
The prince : "You are no thicker than a finger..."
The snake : "But I am more powerful than the finger of a king."

 
 
 A Flower
 
   The flower with only three petals said, 
"They have no roots and wind blows them away, so that makes their life very difficult. "

 
 
Echoes 
 
 

"I am all alone ㅡ all alone ㅡ all alone," answered the echo.

 
Lots of Roses
 

When the prince saw about five thousand roses which are same his rose, he gazed at them. Because he and she knew his rose is the only one in the world.

"we are roses," the roses said.
 
  
 
    When I read the conversation, I realized that the conversatins resembles to the world we live considerably!

I wnat to say about  Absolute & Relative, and Contradiction in our life.

1. The snake knew it's lonely among men, not even in desert, and own power that is not  appearance.

2. The flower worried about people because they don't have root. However, the fact, because people don't have root, we can move freely.

3. The prince wanted friend, but what came back to him from echoes, which is also himself, is 'alone'.

4. Only one his rose ㅡ the prince belived ㅡ was only one of many roses.

Isn't it fun? What do you think about that?
Maybe we live in a number of contradictions.
It is our choice whether relative or absolute and happiness or unhappiness in our life.

I believe that since the prince had choosen 'relative unhappiness', he cried.
