The world shone through his eyes. He was filled with love for everything and everyone. Mountains, and fields of green stretching beyond where the eyes could see. Lying on the velvet green carpet of grass, the clouds against the deep blue skies carried him off to another land where the imagination became reality. This was heaven. Where else could it be at? Here, he was safe from the harshness of the real world, safe from all the harm that could hurt him.

The night skies were filled with stars, so many, it seemed the entire sky just couldn't contain them. The occasional distant rumbling of the town train never woke him from his sleep. Instead, it seemed comforting and served as a little reminder of the outside world. When he slept, he felt like the whole world slept with him. He only knew good, evil was non-existent. He only had love to give, he hasn't learnt how to hate.

In his world, it was uncorrupted, so untouched by the modern world it was painfully clean. Technology spoilt none of its beauty, robbed none of its dignity. The animals that roamed the land were his friends, the trees were his parents, who whispered words of comfort during sleepless nights. Water flowed down from the high mountains, providing water so rich so sweet. Food came in the form of fruits, a variety of tastes. He was living in a land of goodness.

He was living a life of a good man. But if only he knew.
