Matahari pagi masih malu-malu menembus celah dedaunan ketika Ana bangun dari tidurnya. Suara napas pelan dan teratur dari anaknya, Bintang, terdengar jelas di kamar kecil yang mereka tinggali. Ana mengelus lembut kepala Bintang yang kini terbaring lemah di atas kasur tipis. Sudah berminggu-minggu Bintang terlihat semakin lemah dan kurus. Tubuhnya yang dulu ceria dan penuh tawa, kini lebih sering terkulai lemas di pangkuan Ana. “Kenapa, Nak? Kenapa kamu harus merasakan ini?” bisik Ana dengan suara bergetar. Hatinya terasa berat setiap kali memandang anak laki-lakinya itu. Ia tak mampu menahan air matanya lagi. Ana tahu, Bintang mengalami gizi buruk. Namun, sebagai seorang ibu yang bekerja serabutan di kota kecil, Ana tidak memiliki cukup uang untuk memberikan makanan bergizi yang layak. Penghasilan dari bekerja sebagai buruh cuci harian hanya cukup untuk membeli beras dan minyak goreng. Ikan, daging, bahkan sayur-mayur segar terasa seperti barang mewah yang sulit dijangkau.

Aqma walks to the park near his house with excitement. He wants to practice his new football shooting technique so he can become a great footballer like Cristiano Ronaldo. “Alright! Today I’ll get better and closer to my dream of being a footballer!” Aqma said to himself, holding his ball tightly. When Aqma arrives at the park, he looks up at the clear sky and smiles. As he lowers his hand, he notices a girl sitting alone in the gazebo. “Who’s that girl? I’ve never seen her here before,” Aqma wonders. As Aqma practices, he feels uncomfortable. He isn’t used to being watched, especially by a girl. “Come on, Aqma! You’re a man, don’t be shy,” he mutters to himself. He glances at the girl again, and to his surprise, she is watching him too. Aqma becomes even more distracted. Aqma gathers his courage and walks toward the girl. Rina, feeling shy and unsure, looks at him as he approaches. “Hi, my name is Aqma. What’s your name?” Aqma asks with a smile. The girl stays quiet for a moment, then softly replies, “Umm... Rina. My name is Rina.” “Hello, Rina! If you don’t mind, would you like to play football with me? Just for fun?” Aqma asks cheerfully. Rina shakes her head. “I’m sorry, Aqma. I can’t play football.” “Don’t worry! I’ll teach you!” Aqma insists. But Rina lowers her face and says quietly, “It’s not that... I can’t walk properly.” Aqma is confused a bit and then notices the walking stick behind her, “Oh," Aqma feels sorry and says softly, “I’m so sorry, Rina. I didn’t know...” Rina smiles a little. “It’s okay, really.” Suddenly, Aqma has an idea. “Hey, Rina! What if you become my coach?” “Me? How?” Rina asks, surprised. “You can help rate my skills and tell me how good my shots are! just like a real coach!” Aqma says excitedly. Rina smiles brighter. “Okay, my dads often tell me about Cristiano, so I understand a bit about football”. “Really? You know Cristiano too? Aqma surprised.

One sunny afternoon, while grazing near the village, Dudu heard a soft cry. Following the sound, he found a little kid goat stuck in a thorny bush.

Once upon a time, in a vast and lush green forest, there lived a wise tortoise whom everyone respected. His name was Kavi. Kavi was old but very knowledgeable. Kavi lived by the edge of a great lake. His home was hidden inside an old log covered in moss. The animals of the forest loved visiting him because Kavi always told interesting stories and gave wise counsel. One day, a big argument broke out in the forest. The rabbit, Tikur, accidentally took the acorns that the squirrel, Mirmir, had collected to his own burrow. Mirmir was very angry about this, and the animals of the forest were divided. Some supported Tikur, while others sided with Mirmir. The argument grew louder, and the animals started shouting at each other. Finally, they all decided to go see Kavi. The wise tortoise asked everyone to listen carefully and then began to speak slowly: “My dear friends, first of all, we must stay calm. Tıkır, did you take Mırmır’s acorns on purpose, or was it a mistake?” Tıkır bowed his head in sadness and said, “It was not my fault. I only picked up the ones that had fallen to the ground and took them to my burrow, thinking they were mine.”Kavi smiled and turned to Mırmır: “Mırmır, my friend, we now see that Tıkır made a mistake. But would you rather forgive this mistake, or continue fighting?”Mırmır thought for a moment and then sighed: “I know my friend didn’t do this with bad intentions. But I was very upset when I lost my acorns.” Kavi nodded and spoke wisely: “We all make mistakes from time to time. What matters is that we acknowledge our mistakes and learn to forgive one another.” Tıkır immediately stood up and promised Mırmır that he would collect plenty of acorns for him. Mırmır forgave him, and the two old friends made peace. From that day on, whenever there was a disagreement in the forest, the animals remembered Kavi’s wise words. The greatest lesson Kavi had taught them was about friendship and understanding.

Harvey is introduced to new philosopher by Mr. Smith. His name is Friedrich Nietzsche and he was one of the most influential German classical scholar of the 18th century. Mr. Smith told Harvey that Nietzsche was the youngest person as chair of Classical Philology at the University of Basel in Switzerland in 1869, at the age of 24. Harvey was so impressed and amazed. Mr. Smith continues to explain Friedrich Nietzsche's main philosophical concept which is based on two figures in ancient Greek mythology Apollo and Dionysus. Mr. Smith also said that Nietzsche found in classical Athenian tragedy an art form that transcended the pessimism found in the so-called wisdom of Silenus. The Greek spectators, by looking into the abyss of human suffering depicted by characters on stage, passionately and joyously affirmed life, finding it worth living. The main theme in The Birth of Tragedy is that the fusion of Dionysian and Apollonian Kunsttriebe ("artistic impulses") forms dramatic arts or tragedies. He argued that this fusion has not been achieved since the ancient Greek tragedians. Apollo represents harmony, progress, clarity, logic and the principle of individuation, whereas Dionysus represents disorder, intoxication, emotion, ecstasy and unity (hence the omission of the principle of individuation). Nietzsche used these two forces because, for him, the world of mind and order on one side, and passion and chaos on the other, formed principles that were fundamental to the Greek culture: the Apollonian a dreaming state, full of illusions; and Dionysian a state of intoxication, representing the liberations of instinct and dissolution of boundaries. In this mould, a man appears as the satyr. Harvey felt so empowered and understood what Nietzsche meant; life is full of suffering and chaos and hard work and that's where we should find enjoyment and happiness by valuing what is most worth to us.
