A tale to reflect

Once upon a time, a scientist who was always worried about the problems of the world and determined to find ways to improve them. He spent days and days in his lab looking for answers.

One day, his seven year old son broke his sanctuary wanting to help his father. Clear that the scientist does not want to be interrupted and therefore tried the son was playing instead of staying there, hindering it. But as the boy was persistent, the father had to find a way to entertain you in the lab. It was then that he noticed a map of the world that was on the page of a magazine. Remembered to cut the map into pieces and then presented the challenge to his son:

- Son, you will help me to fix the world! Here is the world party. And you'll fix it so that it is well again! When you finish, call me, ok?

The scientist was convinced that the child would take days to solve the puzzles that he had built. But surprisingly few hours later, the child was already calling for him:

- Father, father, I've done everything. I managed to fix the world!

The father could not believe it, thought it was impossible for a kid that age to have achieved assemble the puzzle of a picture that he had never seen before. So we just looked up their calculations to see the work of the son, he thought, was no more than nonsense worthy of a child of that age. But when he saw the map completely assembled without error, asked his son how he had managed without ever having seen a world map above.


- Dad, I did not know how the world was, but when you took the role of the magazine to cut, I saw that on the other side of the page, there was the figure of a man. When you gave me the world for me to fix, I tried but could not. It was then that I remembered the man, turned the pieces of paper around and began to repair the man I knew how. When I managed to fix the man turned the page and saw that the world had repaired.
