WAR AND IDIOTS

Philip was a well known personality in the neighborhood, and to be more realistic; the entire city knew him, dark dim corners of the city, garbage hills and miserable homeless creatures knew him as well. He was the only man who wanted or was designed to come and go into this world in complete silence. His vocabularies were so limited, most of them were not more than cursing others who mocked him joyfully or greeting a little boy who had given him a coin to buy something very dear to him.
When he walked in a street; it always seemed to be endless burden and torture for his soul. However, he always reached the end with patience and determination, because both him and the street had the whole time of the world; and he never complained nor tried to gain more time to do something of importance to him. When he wanted to go to the bakery to get some bread, then he would wander from a street to another as a lost child in a crowded city, until he got the bread. He never knew where to find a bakery or a shop he was heading to but they always appeared in front of him by mere coincidence. One day, while he was roaming in fields, he came to a tent which was an extraordinary new thing for him, he entered it pushed by mere curiosity to explore a very strange place which he had never seen before. In the place, he found a general's uniform, of course, he didn't know it was a general's uniform. But he liked it because it deserved to be liked by a person like him, so he put it on and went out to resume his journey.
An officer appeared from beyond a nearby bushes and ran towards him shouting," We should withdraw sir! they are preparing for a big attack and we are too few to defend our position."
But Philip, the general now, kept on walking forwards towards the front while he was signing with an imperious frown to the officer and soldiers to follow him.
