It was crazy to look for a well in this big desert. But we started walking.
After we walked for several hours, in silence, night came, and the stars began to shine.
I saw them as in a dream. I had a little fever because I was very thirsty.
The last words of the little prince danced in my memory.
“So, you are thirsty, too?” I asked him. But he didn’t answer my question.
He only said to me, “Water can also be good for the heart.”
I didn’t understand his answer, but I said nothing. I already knew that it was useless to ask him questions.
He was tired. He sat down. I sat down next to him.
And after a silence, he spoke again, “The stars are beautiful because of a flower which we can’t see.”
“Sure,” I said. Then I looked at the hills of sand which were all around us in the moonlight.
“The desert is beautiful,” said little prince. And it was true. I always loved the desert.
You sit down on sand. You see nothing. You hear nothing. But something beats and shines in that silence.
