As his new friends asked him to take a picture of them without including him, Peter Brach decided to follow the Almighty’s will by accepting his role as the least respected friend of the group.

“This is the natural order of things, and I have no other choice but to accept my low-status position in the friendship hierarchy”, said Brach, who feels an overwhelming desire to please in order to feel accepted, and is therefore willing to do any humiliating task that is required of him.

“The Providence of God assigns humans different purposes. Some people are meant to confidently ask others to take a picture, while others were naturally designed to blindly submit to their will with no questions asked. Why would I try to fight the will of the Divine?”

As they all attended a concert on the same day, Brach accepted to film everything instead of enjoying the moment, and was made to miss the best song in order to get beers for everyone.
