A genius, a superb genius who was able to tell
me horrible stories of children going to war with a smile, as this smile was the secret to bare that situation in the hope that it would improve.
I was also hoping that he wouldn’t die, but it looks like
that this is the way things work here on Earth.
I’m very sad today.

At least he’s in heaven now.
