A family man made the decision to relocate to another city in order to find a better quality of life. He said goodbye to his family and left them, moving away. He caught a ship and sailed towards his new life. On arrival, the officials in the new city checked both him and his identity and then released him. Following this, he searched the city for a house and for employment. There was a language barrier between the man and the people who lived in his new city, and so he found communication difficult, despite trying to use a language dictionary. Luckily, he was able to draw a picture for a man to let him know that he was looking for somewhere to live, and the man was able to help. He signed the relevant contracts and obtained the key for his room. While looking around his room, the man found an unfamiliar object in a jar. He tried to get rid of the jar but failed. Nevertheless, he continued cleaning and arranging his room, thinking of his family as he did so.
In the days that followed, the man befriended the object in the jar. It told him that he should travel somewhere on an aeroplane. The man ventured out under the object’s instructions and met a woman who gave him directions. He and the woman also exchanged life stories and got on well. Eventually they said goodbye and went their separate ways.
The man was hungry and so he went to a shop to purchase some food. There he met a father and son who fed the man and his strange object. The father invited them back to his house where they all ate, chatted and sang together.
The man continued his search for employment and found it, working in a factory for an elderly man. The elderly man spoke of his past when he fought in the war and many people were killed and badly hurt.
Shortly afterwards, the man composed a letter to his family that he had left, and sent it to them. A long time passed with no reply from his family. Eventually, when the cold season came, the man was looking at a family photograph and he suddenly received a letter from them. Soon his family moved to the new city too, and they were reunited once more.
