The Story
A man invented socks that made him feel the anguish and joy of anyone he looked at.
He used those amazing socks to win the affection of all kinds of people and soon ruled the world.
Over time though, feeling what others felt became common and his heart became hard.
While he ruled the world he no longer felt anything. And he regretted what his invention had made him.
