What else? —A shooting star that crosses the sky from east to west, so we should make a wish for the well-being of our lives and the universe. —But what else do you see? Something very important. —Oh, I understand! That sky is like our immutable and infinite mind, untouched by anything, and... —But Manolo, there’s something more important than that right now, something essential for us. —I don’t know... – Manolo answers, a little stunned. —Well... our tent got stolen.
