This city was not inhabited by people, like all other cities in the world. This city was inhabited by wells. Living Well well ... but in the end. The wells were differentiated not only by the place where they were excavated, but also through the opening (the opening that connected to the outside). There were wells with curbs wealthy and ostentatious marble and precious metals; wells humble brick and wood and some poorer ones, with simple bare holes that opened in the earth. The communication between the inhabitants of the city was curb to curb and news were fast, from one end of town. One day he came to the city a 'fashion' that surely had been born in a human town: The new idea that every living noted that price should care much more inside than outside. The important thing is not superficial but the content. That is how the wells began to fill with stuff. Some things are filled with gold coins and precious stones.
Other, more practical, filled with appliances and mechanical devices. Some more opted for art and were filled with paintings, grand piano sophisticated postmodern sculptures. Finally, the intellectuals were filled with books, of manifestos and ideological journals. Time passed ... Most of the wells were filled to the point that they could not add anything else. The wells are not all equal so that, although some were formed, there were others who thought they should do something to keep putting things inside ...
One of them was the first: instead of pressing the contents , he decided to increase its ability to widen. It was not long before the idea was imitated, all wells were spending much of his energies in order to make further widen space inside. A well, small and away from the center of the city, began to see their comrades widen excessively. He thought that if they continued to swell so soon would be confused edges and each would lose its identity ...
Maybe after this idea occurred to him that another way to increase its capacity was growing, but not across but into the deep. Becoming more deeply rather than wider. He soon realized that everything he had into the task of deepening impossible. If you wanted to be more profound was emptied of all content ... At first he was afraid of the vacuum, but then When he saw that there was no other possibility, he did. Void of possessions, the well started to become deeper, while others took possession of the things that he had broken ...
One day, suddenly grew to well that was a surprise inside: inside, too in, and deep down he found water!. Never before had found another well water ... Well get over the shock and started playing with the bottom water, wetting the walls, spraying the edges and finally drawing water out. The city had never been watered only by rain, which was actually quite low, so land around the well, revitalized by the water, began to awaken. The seeds of his heart, sprang up in grass, clover, flowers, and greater tuberosity weak trees after they became ... Life exploded away colors around the well into which began to be called 'The Orchard'.
all asked him how he got the miracle. "No miracle," replied the Verger, must look within, to the depths ... Many wanted to follow the example of the Orchard, but retraced the idea when he realized that to go deeper should be emptied. Continued to widen more and more to fill more and more things ... On the other side of town, another well, decided to also run the risk of vacuum ... and also began to deepen ...
And they also came to the water ... and also splashed out by creating a second green oasis in the town ... - What will you do when you finish the water? - asked. - Do not know what will happen, "answered" But, for now, how much more water bag, the more water there. Spent a few months before the big discovery. One day, almost by chance, the two wells realized that water had found at the bottom of themselves was the same ...
That same underground river going through one another depth flooding. They realized that opened for them a new life. Not only could they communicate, curb to curb, superficially, like all others, but finding they had provided a new and secret contact point:
deep communication only get together, those with the courage to be emptied of contents and search the depths of his being what they have to give ...
