[A PURPOSED MOMENT]
Before there was SARS …There was a Garden with a majestic Tree at its centre.It provided Shelter and Sustained Man and all the inhabitants of the Garden.The Tree stood Strong and was Excellent in every wayThe Tree’s name was Courageous.Though Man lived in the Garden, he said, Let us build a City.Man did so, but he did not recognize The Tree and built a wall which made it apart from the City.Then SARS came and the City was full of Fear.The Citizens took up the fight against SARS, and Some gave up their very Lives.Spared, the City was deeply Grateful for the sacrifice of its Heroes.Suddenly, it was as if it had been Blind but could now See.The City saw the Tree called Courageous.After SARS the City said,Let us remake our City, let us break down that which divides us.Let us Embrace The Tree whose name is Courageous.For the Citizens of the City now saw that its Heroes were like The Tree …Before there was Fear in the City, Heroes were Present …True … Noble … Awaiting the Moment … of their Call to Serve …Courageously.
