"Creating Short Story Week #23": " The adventurer returns" by @bedarg

I have come a long way and I have seen a lot of every country I have visited, but it is time to return to my place of departure, my country, my city, my home. It has been 15 years since I ventured to travel the world, it has been a long time and I hope everyone is well.
That was the thought of Ulysses a man who one day decided to travel the world to know it but it took him a long time and besides being tired he missed his home and it was time to return when he arrived to his homeland he noticed great changes but not for the better he only saw ruin and misery this scared him a lot and although he did not have much money he did what he could to get to his city, his home, his home. his home town as he entered the city limits he began to realize the horrible changes that the city had undergone and little by little he arrived home only to see what he feared the abandonment, decadence and criminality that punished what was once a happy and healthy place for both young and old.

Deteriorated streets, non existent lighting, scarce drinking water and scarce water and sanitation. This filled him with sadness and an unbearable pain in his heart to see that in 15 years the area where he lived since he was born was destroyed and not only the place but the whole city and the country was the same. This led him to think that it is so important for humans to have power and wealth that they do not look at the damage they do to others with their greed and greed.

And he thought how can I help to improve this and he had only one idea to go little by little doing good in his community and if it takes him the rest of his life what does it matter since it took him 15 years to travel the world and do good for his community his friends and family for him it will be a new adventure and by far the longest but he will do it with love and happiness because it is his home.
