Opening the Magic Diary of the Dickens’ Hero…
You will not believe what I’ll tell….
Do you know that one month ago I acquainted with Dickens’ hero? He differed from others. I met Him when I was going to the music school. I was walking and suddenly He appeared from heavens. To tell you the truth I was very frightened at fist. Then I thought that I was in a dream. But no, everything was real. Exactly 5 minutes I was standing there and looking at Him. Suddenly he took off a little book from his pocket and started to list quickly. I thought it was a little vocabulary. He took it back into His pocket and gave me His hand and said with a smile: “Hello”. I was so surprised that I did nothing except looking at him. I understood him hardly and said: “Hi!” So, He asked my name and wrote it in His notebook. I was so astonished at that moment that I didn’t even ask His name, and He disappeared. That day I couldn’t sleep, because I didn’t understand what happened and how He appeared.
After two days he appeared when I was alone at home. . We spoke long about sport, music, art and theatre. Thus from time to time He appeared and astonished me. Unfortunately the time of his leaving was coming closely. I wanted to give him an interesting and original gift. Luckily I could draw well, so I drew Him with my imagination. Before leaving He gave me His diary as a gift. It was that notebook where He had written my name. He sad: “Good bye, we’ll meet in about 100 years”. I laughed. He didn’t know that people couldn’t live so long nowadays…
Just the same day I started to study His diary. You can’t imagine what beautiful pictures were there. Each of them was very interesting story. But all that stories were written 150-200 years ago. There were many pictures of famous musicians, singers, writers and artists…
From the half of His diary a story started about His traveling after 100 years. That part was the most interesting one. But there were only three colors in the pictures of that story: black, white and grey. There were only robots of different size and shape in His pictures.
Let me read for you some stories from his diary.
“…I appeared here 333 years after my birth, during my second journey trough the times. I couldn’t recognize my own Planet at first. It was so much changed. There were no more colors on the Planet besides grey, white and black. There was no music sound anywhere. I could hear only some remarkable sounds of electronic machines. It was so boring that I had a headache because of those extraordinary unpleasant sounds. There were no trees and animals in the world. I wanted to meet with a real human being, but there wasn’t one. There was a button on theirs forehead to switch on and off… I cried…”
“…. I visited to some “café” I wanted to drink some coffee. The waiter-robot approached to me and brought a cup of technical oil for me. I looked at that cup with astonished glance. Then I asked for a cup of tea. I hoped to drink some tea, but in vain… He brought a cup of petrol… I ran out from that cafе like a madman…”
“… I was walking on the street when accidentally I caught in something that fell down. I bent over to correct it when the robot-charwoman appeared and corrected it. I looked at her and went on… ”
There were such stories in His diary. At the end it was written: “My dear friend! I wrote these stories after my traveling in the future. I love my Planet. Please, save it from robotization. I’ll miss you very much. Good bye…”
Homo sapiens! Please! Understand, and don’t perish yourselves…
I love my Planet. What about you…?
