Once upon a time, lived two men. One of red, the other, of blue.
The man in red had all he could ever want.
The man in blue had none of what he needed.
The man in red had servants serving bacon.
The man in blue had himself picking berries.
One time, they collided.
"Ouch!", screamed the man in red. "My things are covered in mud!"
"I'm sorry, let me clean that for you!", replied the man in blue.
"No, no, no. I shall get this replaced!"
"No, no, no. You shall not have that replaced!"
"You do not value your things?"
"No I do not value my things."
"Even if it were your shoes?"
"Even if it were my shoes."
"Even if it were your shoes?
Even if it was your necklace?"
"Even if it weremy shoes,

even if it was my necklace."
"Even if it were your shoes?
Even if it was your necklace?
Even if it was your bag?"
"Even if it were my shoes
even if it was my necklace,
even if it was my bag."
"Even if it were your shoes?
Even if it was your necklace?
Even if it was your bag?
Even if it were your socks?"
"Even if it were my shoes,
even if it was my necklase,
even if it was my bag,
even if it were my socks."
"Let's switch places, and you'll see."
"If we switch places, what will I see?"
"You'll value your things, you'll see."
"So be it then, make me see."
So for one day, they switched places. Switched places for four days.
The man in blue became rich, the man in red became poor.
The man in blue had servants serving bacon.
The man in red had himself picking berries.
They met again in another day, on the day numbered four.
"Now, will you still replace your stuff?
"No longer, man in blue."
"Even if it were your shoes?"
"Even if it were my shoes."
"Even if it were your shoes?
Even if it was your necklace?"
"Even if it were my shoes,
even if it was my necklace."
"Even if it were your shoes?
Even if it was your necklace?
Even if it was your bag?"
"Even if it were my shoes,
even if it was my necklace,
even if it was my bag."
"Even if it were your shoes?
Even if it was your necklace?
Even if it was your bag?
Even if it were your socks?"
"Even if it were my shoes,
even if it was my necklase,
even if it was my bag,
even if it were my socks."
"So do you value your things now?"
"I do value of my things now."
"Will you replace your things?"
"No, I will not replace my things."
Both men were happy going forward.
The man in red learned to be appreciative.
And, the man in blue had bacon.
