Is There Anything I Can Do?

Imagine if you have just landed in stranded area... In some strange universe that is totally different than one you used to lived in... Then you try to observe the habitat, adapt with the air, cope with nature and walk very carefully... In times you would learn that you actually can do this and that, try new exciting things that you have never done before...

Than one day, someone gives you brick... Stacks of brick for you to built. You are thinking, "Alas! This is the material that I need to have to build my house... my fortress... my temple. Now I'm gonna spend my times to build a strong, beautiful foundation." Then you start to cementing your bricks one by one... When suddenly a great mass of sand is dropped right next to your brick. At first you think that it's a common thing, and that you should be thankful for the sand... but then, another mass of sand is dropped on your previous pile. Then another. Then another again. Yes, yes, I know sands are important too... but you need more cement and bricks to support your work, more time to build your foundation. You cannot build your foundation on sand.

What to do? How to survive in that strange universe? As a part of the universe, I would be willing to help you... If there is anything I could do. All you need is to pass me the shovel.
