The day began was not a normal day but something unique, plenty of gray smoke into the air, fire, earth and sand everywhere and a silence, only can hear the wind blow. Everything was different and Andy the Roach had realized he had survived a disaster, but if he wants to live would have to find food and water in a desolate world. Walking disoriented to some direction in search of shelter and food. On his quest he encounters a wounded ant and the ant said him: “Please help me I'm stuck my leg under this stone, I can’t move” and Andy says, "I'm sorry I cannot I'm in search of food," and leaves the ant a lone. The Ant is left thinking... why? If you have the opportunity to help me why not do it?.

Following their way Andy meets a worm that said, "Help me I'm stuck between these stones, and I cannot get out," and Andy, the Roach says, "I'm sorry I cannot I have to find food, that's life" and left.

Roach just thought in it, others don't matter to it. It stance was selfish and very lonely. The roach had nothing. Only Andy thought to eat and meet their needs. Taking only the opinions and viewpoints, other insects don't matter for Andy. If it saw that someone had problems it only towards one side and left that they would suffer the needy.

Crossing strangers along paths Andy was intercepts by a scorpion, which also sought food, and blocking the way of Andy, to eat him. Suddenly the ant who he had seen earlier near there appears, and Andy says "Help me ant, I'm trapped and I cannot go out" and Ant says, "I cannot I'm looking for food with my friends who helped me out" and goes, then spent the worm and Andy says "Help me, worm, I'm stuck "and the worm says, "I cannot against the scorpion, that's life" and goes, finally unable to leave Andy is attacked by the scorpion. It try to stay alive but could not because the Scorpion attack was lethal and the poison did die fast.

The moral of the fable:

“Doing nothing for others is the undoing of ourselves.”

“If you want to make the world a better place, the first step always starts with helping each other."

"All need support but if you can help we will do it without expecting anything in return”
