One group of scientists has worked fo a number of years decode the human Jeff Hensley genome. At aoa Brst, they Meditation thought that humans | pos- sessed as many as 100,000 genes, but the latest count is now down to approximately 20,000, which puts us in the category of certain plants. This kind of news is a blow to our pride, but there is nothing wrong with having our pride deflated once in a while. There was a certain doctor who had an interesting rou- tine. On two days during the year he would go upstairs to his closet and take out a coat that was out of style and in pitiful condi- tion. One sleeve of this coat was covered with a home- made patch and the coat as a whole was tawdry, stringy Arts Society presents awards Gateways to the South awards were presented at October 8th for the Southern Arts Society’s most recent show.

The doctor replied that he had gotten that coat while he was an intern in New York City. One cold winter night someone came knock- ing at his door. When he opened it, he found a little girl pleading with him to come and help her little brother. He followed the girl to a one-bedroom tenement apartment in lower Manhattan, where a little boy lay terribly sick. There was no heat in the room and no sign of food. But there was evidence of love, for the doctor found there a terribly distraught mother and father hovering over their little boy. The young doctor did everything he could, but in spite of his best efforts, the little boy died right in front of him. The doctor was shiv- ering not only from the hurt of the boy’s death, but also because of the lack of heat in that tiny apartment. Noticing his discomfort, the boy’s father took off his own coat and gave it to him and said, “Here, you're cold. Take this, and thank you for coming and trying to save our little boy.” The doctor realized then that there was only one way that couple could possibly thank him. He didn’t have the heart to refuse the coat or give it back. After he became prominent and wealthy, twice a year — on the anniversary of that boy’s death and on the anniver- sary of the day he got his diploma to be a doctor — he made it a custom to take that coat out of his closet and wear it as a reminder. “This coat reminds me of what it’s all about,” he said- Jesus once said that the meek would inherit the earth. There's always been speculation about what it means to be “meek,” but I think that doctor is a good example of meekness. And like him, I suspect that all of us need an occasional reminder of what it’s all about.
