Mini Story - The Explorer

One day, an explorer decided to leave his safe, happy home to test himself in an extreme environment. 

"Take this coat," his friends told, him, "Or you'll catch cold."

"I'm going there to feel the cold," he replied.

"Wear these goggles," they told him, "To protect your eyes."

"No," he told them, "I want to see clearly."

"Take this book," they told him, "So you don't forget about what's true."

"No," he told them, "I'm going to find what's true."

"Please," his friends said in desperation. "Don't go. Don't risk it. You might die there."

"Yes, I will," he replied, "But I must die, there, to be born here."

"We will miss you," his friends said sadly. 

"No, you won't," he said kindly.
