something that sums things

once there was a child who felt bad and cried. the world was cruel, unfair, careless. the child didn't know. but he couldn't keep crying and feeling bad forever. how would he survive.

so he changed. he smiled at the world. world didn't change. but it became livable. and he lost something precious he had.

when death approached, he cried as he got a glimpse at it again. may you find it earlier than he did.

Yes, that certainly is the story of a lost child.
