I see a miserable man and shake my head at the irony of the universe. He is penniless, has no education, and is constantly plagued by poor health. At the same time, he has in his possession the one thing I crave more than life itself.
He looks at me and feels similarly disgusted. I am well educated, financially secure, and enjoy amazing health. Though I am miserably alone and indifferent to world, I don't believe he notices. I don't know that he would even care.
And despite the fact we each hold valuable commodities, we understand that the road to misery lay ahead. What a cruel joke fate plays with us. Or perhaps the joke is that we allow it to.
