Looking to what's invisible but it's durable!
We can tell a persistent theme from the begging of the story, that is the importance to look beyond what we can really see, such as it's demonstrated by the narrator first drawing, people couldn't get it because they were only worried about what was obviously seen, not really questioning what had inside of it. We can notice it as well when the prince gets shocked to know there were other roses in the universe, not really understanding that, what makes his rose special is invisible to the eye, such as he could. So when the prince meets the fox, he understands what truly means to be unique in this world which does not lack the ?same? things. There?s a clear distinction to have something and taming it, you can have a bunch of roses, but the one you devote more time, care, love, and attention, it?s the one that?s singular and that you have the necessity of. This means you can weep sometimes, especially during a departure, since you established ties and a sincere connection. So although the prince could see a field of roses, no one would have the heart of his beloved rose by him. Yes, only with the heart we can see rightly what's essential. This was such an important lesson. We can become so materialist and immediatist sometimes. This is also notable when a merchant who sells pills to quench thirst appears, these pills could save 53 minutes o time, but why not just walk towards spring of fresh water? It's better to spare time than to look for something that's not seen. It's simpler if you just buy it ready-made, it's what the majority of us think. But unfortunately, there are some things that cannot be bought, even though you have all money in the world, like friendships. And there are other things we are delusional about, because we think we own, like the businessman did with the starts, but actually we have nothing of it, and don?t know anything about its meaning. Indeed, looking for fresh water in the desert it's undeniably dangerous, looking for a true friend it's a journey of patience and obstacles, such as water a rose and taking care of it, to try to understand a drawing, can be an exhaustive exercise, to be a geographer can be more comfortable compared to the unexpected costs of a journey of an explorer. However, all of these hardships it's always a pleasurable experience for the soul. And it's a way to live beauty, sensitivity, and joy during our short lives.
