The boy was eight years old, an orphan and always hungry. When his mother died, he went to live with his grandfather who didn\u2019t treat him well. To forget about his bad fortune, and to get away from his grandfather, he went for walks in the small town away from the slum where he lived. Hoping to find something to eat, he looked through display windows in stores, butcher shops, and restaurants, but no one gave him anything. One day he was in front of a candy shop and he saw many kinds of delicious and colorful candy. But something caught his attention: a paper cone filled with sugar covered almonds which became his obsession, to the point that he had dreams about it. The paper cone filled with almonds was worth a 10-cent coin, but the boy didn\u2019t have it.<\/p>\n
Era un ni\u00f1o de ocho a\u00f1os, hu\u00e9rfano y siempre ten\u00eda hambre. Cuando muri\u00f3 su mam\u00e1, se qued\u00f3 a vivir con su abuelo que no lo trataba bien. Para olvidarse de su mala fortuna, y alejarse del del abuelo, caminaba por las calles del pueblo lejos del barrio pobre donde viv\u00eda. Como ten\u00eda hambre miraba por los escaparates de las tiendas de comida, carnicer\u00edas y restaurantes, pero nunca le ofrec\u00edan nada. Un d\u00eda se detuvo delante de la vitrina de una dulcer\u00eda y vio con [placer, alegr\u00eda, encanto, deleite] todo tipo de dulces deliciosos y muy coloridos. Lo que m\u00e1s le llam\u00f3 la atenci\u00f3n fue un cucurucho de papel lleno repleto de almendras garapi\u00f1adas, y se obsesion\u00f3 tanto que cada noche so\u00f1aba con el cucurucho. Pero, costaba diez centavos, y el ni\u00f1o no los ten\u00eda.<\/p>\n
I never stopped fertilizing the soil, so the roots were nourished to the fullest. I also always carefully cleaned the stems and leaves so they could breathe the fresh air more easily. These practices, according to Nemesio Garc\u00eda Naranjo in \u201cThe Slaughter of Flowers\u201d (1920), contributed to the flourishing of nature.<\/p>\n
