The Internet is the sphere of speed, information and image. It’s therefore difficult these days - especially for young people - to read extensive texts with deep meaning, on the Internet.

Because they know how hard the long flight is, when birds migrate to warmer climates, the bigger birds show great love by carrying smaller ones on their wings as they make the journey. But they’re often decried by some chickens, whose eyes are inflamed from the muck they scrabble around in every day and so they can’t see clearly the others that are struggling.
