of your way. Don't worry.

No, no, no. We're fine.

We were just chatting.

Right, Almitra?

Chatting?

Yes, we were sailing

on the wings of the wind.

IVlmm.

That reminds me, last night

I had the sweetest dream.

I dreamt of a ship

sailing into the harbor,

coming to take me

back to my homeland.

Hmm.

Halim, you haven't today,

by any chance, seen a ship?

No,

but to tell you the truth,

I wasn't looking.

IVlmm! IVlmm!

Almitra, get down from there!

Ahhh!

Ooh!

Oh! Mustafa, I'm so sorry!

I mean, Almitra is sorry.

Oh! Here, let me...

You do it.

That must hurt so much.

No, no, no. I'm fine.

I'm fine, really.

Oh, no, no, no.

Look at your painting.

It's completely ruined.

No, no. Not at all.

In fact, it's improved.

No, no, Mustafa,

you cannot mean that.

I do, I do!

But it's so ugly.

Look at it!

Now, now, now.

I don't know

what to do.

Come and sit down. Here.

I've tried everything!

Nothing I do or say

gets through to her.

She's just completely

beyond my control.

Well, of course, she is.

What?

She doesn't belong to you.

She doesn't?

Oh, no, no, no,

no, no, Mustafa.

I remember

clearly that it was me

who brought her

into this world.

Yes, yes, that's true.

She came through you,

but not from you.

"Your children are

not your children

"They are the sons and daughters

Of Life's longing for itself"

Your children

are not your children

They're the sons and daughters

of Life 's longing for itself

They come through you

But not from you

Though they're with you,

they belong to themselves

You may give them your love,

but not your thoughts

For they have

thoughts of their own

You may house their bodies,

not their souls

For their souls

dwell in a house of tomorrow

Which you cannot visit,

not even in your dreams

You may strive

To be like them

But seek not to

make them like you

For life goes not backward

Nor tarries with yesterday

You are the bows

from which your children

As living arrows

are sent forth

The archer sees the mark

upon the path of the infinite

And He bends

you with His might

That His arrows

may go swift and far

Let your bending in the

archer's hand be for gladness

For even as he

loves the arrow that flies

He loves

the bow that is stable

Let your bending in the

archer's hand be for gladness

For even as he

loves the arrow that flies

He loves

the bow that is stable

"For even as he loves

the arrow that flies

"So He loves also

the bow that is stable"

SERGEANTZ Haliml

OW! Ohh!

(DOOR cLosEs

Sergeant, to what

do I owe this honor?

I've come to inform you that you are

released from your confinement.

What? Released?

LAuGHs)

But we should throw a party,

with music.
