The Story

A man wakes up in the desert at 9:00 AM with no recollection of the night prior. He surveys the landscape and sees nothing but sky in all directions. An incredible thirst overcomes him, and he can think of nothing else. Many hours pass. He walks, and walks, and walks, and finds nothing but thirst. The sky grows dark, and night falls, and he falls to the ground. 

A bright light appears in the sky. A hand reaches down and offers a glass of water.

The man drinks.
