Trees in Seasons: Seasons of Life
π΄ There was a man who
had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge things too
quickly.
πΊ So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away.
❄ The first son went in the winter
πΏ the second in the spring
☀ the third in summer
and
π the youngest son in the fall.
π When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen.
π The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted.
π The second son said, "no it was covered with green buds and full of promise".
π The third son disagreed; he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen.
π The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit, full of life and fulfillment.

Death gives life - Nicholas Green Foundation
Nicholas Green, his sister, Eleanor Green, and their parents, Margaret and Reginald Green, were having a holiday in Calabria Southern Italy. On the night of September 29, 1994 his parents were driving on the A3 motorway between Salerno and Reggio Calabria.[1][3] They stopped at an Autogrill, where two men started following their car believing they were jewellers. The men pulled alongside the Greens' vehicle and shouted something in Italian, which the Greens did not understand. Reginald Green accelerated, at which point the men fired shots into the rear of the car. He accelerated a second time, and once again the men shot into the back of the car. After the pursuers gave up Reginald stopped the car, and at this point he and Margaret realised that Nicholas had been shot in the head.[3] They drove directly to the nearest town, but the hospital was not equipped to deal with Nicholas' injuries. The police took the family to Villa San Giovanni, where they transferred to a ferry which brought them across the Strait of Messina to the port of Messina. From there, the police took them to a specialist head injuries unit at a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead the next day.[4]
***************
A seven year-old boy from California, Nicholas Green, was killed by highway robbers in 1994 while vacationing in Italy with his family. His parents agreed to donate his organs and corneas, which went to seven Italians waiting for transplants. Reg and Maggie Green spoke openly to the media, with no bitterness, about their loss and decision. The world took the story--and the Greens--to its heart. Organ donations in Italy have quadrupled since Nicholas was killed so that thousands of people are alive who would have died. |
