I wake up in the rubble of my home, my children and wife are dead or missing. I pick through the rubble trying to figure out what happened. The soldiers are here. I raise my arms to show I'm not a threat, we don't speak the same language anymore, but it isn't enough. They fire on me presuming I'm a threat, but I can't figure out why. It doesn't matter. In the end I lie there bleeding out as soldiers shout commands I don't understand. It's all worth it though, because someone on the other side of the world woke up early, got their favorite coffee, went for a walk, ate something nice, wore nice clothes, and listened to their favorite album.
