as childish. Yet, those views are from a modern, Western<br />

standpoint which can only see devotion and loyalty as<br />

means to another end. However, they are ends in and of<br />

themselves.<br />

Their simple and pure loyalty is going to carry these birds’<br />

souls to Heaven more than anything they would be able<br />

to accomplish with their remaining years, if they had forsaken<br />

their “mother” tree.<br />

THE POWER OF LOVE<br />

I heard a beautiful story of a college professor in New<br />

York who gave his business-economy students the assignment<br />

of going into a slum and finding 10 children each to<br />

interview. Then, the university students had to prepare<br />

reports on each of the 10 children they had interviewed.<br />

The final item of the assignment was for the students to<br />

rate each child’s chance of success in the world.<br />

So, the students all completed their assignments. With 20<br />

students in the class, the professor ended up with 200<br />

papers on 200 different children living in a slum area. Every<br />

single report ended with the last question of “What<br />

are this child’s chances of success in the world?” Each<br />

had the same answer: “This child has no chance.”<br />

Twenty or thirty years later, another professor at the<br />

same college came upon these 200 old reports in the<br />

economy department’s filing cabinets. He thought it would<br />

be interesting to see whether all 200 children had really<br />

turned out to be victims of their impoverished, crime-ridden<br />

upbringings.<br />

Amazingly, over 90% of the children who had “no chance”<br />

had turned out to be successful doctors, lawyers or professionals.<br />

The professor was astonished and went to each<br />

one to ask what had helped him or her become a success.<br />
