A young man, left home in Africa with his close friend; for the shores of Western Europe. He was convinced as much as his friend that his country had nothing For him, as far as progress, peace or prosperity is concerned. They traversed through the scorching heat of the arid desert landscape, the wild open ocean and the rugged cold mountain. According to him and other youths of many other countries, they were in search of 'A life worth living' However, events and situations, on arrival at the destination of their aspiration led both friends to be reasonable in the management of their expectation. When they were twice refused permission to stay where they had set their heart, both had no option, than to reverse their journey, back to where they did not want to be. As he returned, he concluded that all the lands he crossed, were empty for him. On a reassuring note for the friends, they made a dignified exit from the land they sought the failed asylum. They were pleased that they weren't detained at the removal center, restrained, and then deported in a humiliating way.
