Then tell me again, because I forgot it and that’s why I can’t find what I’m looking for. What’s your name?

Odai, I am Princess Odai.

Odai, alright. -- And he dug deep into his trunk again. -- Odai. Odai... Odai...

Do you have something for me?

I do. That’s what I’m looking for. What did you think? That diving into trunks is my thing?

No, of course not.

My hobby?

No...

The way I earn my living?

No, I didn’t think that.

A way for Time to waste time?

NO.

What then?

I was just wondering what you have for me.

Your wealth.

You have my wealth?

I do.

Then you are...

The Richest Man in the World... Bingo!

But... I mean... I don’t get it...

What? -- interrupted the man... Mr. Time... The Richest Man in the World, looking at her. -- Are you surprised to find The Richest Man in the World living in a dump? Do you find it strange that I don’t have any money? That I live in misery and I wear these rags? -- He poked his head back in the trunk.

No, not at all. I don’t think this is your house.

It is.

I didn’t say it was a dump.

Well, actually it is a dump!

But... I don’t think you live in misery.

Well, I do.

He was throwing tons of papers out of the trunk.

And I never said that you wear rags.

They are rags; we can’t deny that. -- He lifted his head out of the trunk -- I found it.

Alright, yes. It is a dump, you do live in misery and you are wearing rags. How then, can you be The Richest Man in the World?

Listen, my dear -- said the man tenderly. -- In life, one only becomes truly wealthy... in experience.

Odai was quiet. The man got up and walked over to the Princess. He was holding an envelope in his hand.

Here is your wealth -- he said as he handed her the envelope. -- Some will try to fool you into thinking that you have to have things in order to be wealthy. That jewels, money or properties make you wealthy, but that’s not true. True wealth comes from your experience, because nobody can take that away from you. I would rather lose everything, everything I’ve ever had than to lose what I have learned: my experience. Go on, open your wealth.

The Princess opened the envelope and took out a piece of paper that read:

• You can’t have control over everything.

– Bee

• Nothing is 100% certain. Life should be lived by constantly defying the unknown, because life is not static, it is forever changing.

– Bee

• Imagine what your life could be like if you dared to change.
