Although machines were doing most jobs in the mine, there still were jobs that people had to do. However the machines were perfect, they couldn't replace humans. Machines worked according to the algorithm they were programmed. Machines had no senses, nor they could get them. On the other hand, humans have had senses that expanded during work. As much the senses expanded, so much the experience increased. It's wasn't all just in automatical digging, sometimes the material had to be felt. That's something that machines couldn't do.

The day was on end. A self-propelled automatized bus drove tired miners to their homes. Many of them tried to stay awake until they arrive home, so they avoided drowsiness by mutual conversations. Some of them were trying to keep eyes wide open even though their eyelids were folding. There were those who surrendered to dream and slept in bus seats.

Tiredness doesn't surmount him so much that dream would blow him into its miracle world. He moved the view from the colourful band that transected the sky to the red disc on the edge of the horizon. As the star was setting down more, two sickles on the opposite side of the sky became brighter and the band of the planet's ring pierced the sky more.

Two moons were quite close to each other, which meant that sleeplessness waits for him. And not only him. Tomorrow's day will be difficult for the people jaded by sleeplessness. The moons in that vicinity doubled their gravitation energy, which triggered metabolism to activity. So the organism refused to sleep despite the tiredness disturbing the biorhythm and everyday habits.

The red disc circle reminded him of himself. Of his monotone life that was moving into the selfsame circle. Didn't see the point of in that monotone life that will sink into nothingness as the red disc will sink behind the horizon. Only his monotone life circle won't leave any trace after it sinks behind the horizon of existence. While the star will set light to the moons by its shine, staying present in its complete absence.

Most of the people who were bored by living on the Lightsaber though that living on some other planet is much better. He talked to the people that emigrated to other planets and came back to the Lightsaber. There wasn't any crucial change, except the place. All the other is the same. The same monotonous circle of life.

He also talked to some astronauts who work on the outer space missions.

"People use to think that our job is such amazing just because we fly through the outer space." One of them said. "They have no idea how toilful our job is. Should bear up such a long time in the spaceship. Some of the astronauts can't endure that psychic pressure and became crazy. Some went out of the spaceship right into the outer space and died. There was no chance to take their bodies and bury them properly. I wished to change my profession for a thousand times. But it's too late, I have chosen it hoping to take an amazing adventure. No back now."

So, every profession has its circle that goes to the monotony. Every planet has its circle that goes to the monotony. It didn't make sense to change the profession, nor the living place. It had to do something that overcomes the material world. Something that makes the shine which will light the way to the other people, and make them come over the mere existence.

He went out of the bus after stopped in front of his house. He made the first step to overcome the circle of monotony. He believed that life is much more than ordinary mining the ore for someone's else benefits.
