The Voyageur DN HDHEBQLMEHEB MEN THE YOUNG WARRIOR returned from the battle with the neighbour- ing tribes, he went to the elder. And in the shade of the palm trees they sat for a long time looking at the fading sun. And the Old one said:- Even as the sun has given us Light, and Warmth, and Hope, and even as it now leaves us for a while, so you, my son, have left us, after bringing Light to our eyes, Warmth to our hearts, and Hope to our souls. You have now returned, just as the sun will return tomorrow, with the singing of the birds. And again you will Offer Light, Warmth and Hope. But these words only made the warrior sad, for in him there seemed to be nothing that would bring comfort to his friends. He said:- MI have killed young men like myself, burned villages like ours, de- stroyed years Of toil of old men like you. How can I rise again, and build and dream? How can I look at our land, without thinking that some day, all will be destroyed, by men like me, who hate to destroyiw The old man looked with weary eyes into the dying sun, and said:- 4'NOthing, my friend, that man does, is only good. We are still in the dark, groping our way to the light that is yet to come. But for every step we take backwards to the cave, we advance five towards the clouds. You ourself, bv our thoughts, show that there is 0 Y . Y rn. . yet ho e, that man IS not a beast that love has et its lace in the breasts . th Pa, 9 Y P O men. And with these words he gave the soldier hope, for he thought that not everything was lost. And the young man said:- alt is good, father, to know that some of you, in the village, still see the world in the way it should be seen. It is good that we can come back and find a few, who know what is important and what is not. It is good to End peace in your heart, as well as in your villagef, With these words the Warrior left the elder and rejoined his friends in the village. And he became a great builder Of peace. -JOHN MEISEL 22
