Journey to the Edge of the Earth


Deep within the jungle, in the midst of caves, lived a curious caveboy. He would often gaze at the horizon during sunset and marvel at the stars that lit up the night sky just before he fell asleep. He longed to explore the earth and was particularly intrigued by the direction where the sun sets, as if it held the key to some mysterious edge of the world. In his late childhood, he made up his mind to set out on a journey to find this elusive edge.


With a heart filled with curiosity, he bid farewell to his parents and set off on his adventure. For months, he traveled through dense forests, crossing deserts and traversing rugged terrains. Each night, he would look up at the sky, mesmerized by the faint and bright stars that seemed to guide his way.


However, as time passed, he began to feel homesick. He missed his family and began to lose hope of ever finding the edge of the earth. One day, while hiding in a bush, he accidentally spotted a man on a horse. Fearful of being caught, he remained hidden and watched the man as he disappeared into a village.


Curiosity got the better of him, and he cautiously followed the path that led him to the village. However, he was captured by the villagers and thrown into prison. There, he met another boy who seemed to be from a different village. Despite the language barrier, they formed a bond and devised a plan to escape.


With their combined efforts, they broke free from the grass and bamboo prison and fled to the nearby jungle. The caveboy's newfound friend led him to his village, where he was welcomed into their family. He learned about their culture and ways of life, and he even adopted a name that his friend gave him during their time in prison.


Years passed, and the caveboy grew into a young man, gaining knowledge and wisdom from his experiences. However, he still yearned for his home and decided to return. With the skills he had acquired, he rode a horse and retraced his journey back, wearing civilized clothes he had learned about in the village.


Finally, he reached his home and realized that what he had been searching for all along was not a physical edge of the earth, but a sense of belonging and connection with his family. He was overjoyed to be reunited with his parents, and he shared tales of his adventures and the knowledge he had gained.


As he looked around at the familiar surroundings, he realized that the forest had always been his true home, where he had grown up and felt a deep sense of belonging. With a heart full of gratitude and wisdom beyond his years, he was grateful for the journey that had shaped him into the person he had become. He was now ready to embrace his future with a renewed sense of purpose and appreciation for the world around him.
