He Didn't See the Beauty of the Day

The article describes a scene from a family celebration after a baptism, where the joy and innocence of the children contrast with the bad mood of the owner of the event hall. The children, dressed in their best clothes, spontaneously play football in the yard, creating an atmosphere of play and joy. The author describes the environment in detail, the sunny weather, the blue sky, and the scent of flowers, emphasizing the beauty of the moment. However, the children's joy is interrupted by the stern remark of the owner, who focuses only on the financial side of the event. The article is a short story about the loss of the ability to enjoy the simple joys of life, as well as the dominance of materialism and economic logic. The owner of the hall, absorbed in the cash register, cannot see or feel the beauty of the day and the joy of the children.
