Fading Blossoms of Love – Kaushal Kishore

In my garden, blossoms once so aglow,
Now droop and fade, their beauty slow…
I dared not touch them, with a fearful heart,
Lest they wither away, and our love depart…
But still I see their charm, in every fading hue,
A reminder of love, that once bloomed anew…

Good People Doing Good Things — Matthew Chang | Filosofa’s Word
Matthew Chang … a young man only 17 years old, living in Irvine, California, who has already given back more than many of us do in a lifetime. Here’s Matthew’s story from the Points of Light website:
High School Junior Uses Environmental Education to Fight Back Against the Climate Crisis
By Kristin Park
20 March 2024
When Matthew Chang was in 7th grade, he emailed his city councilmember. Leading with passionate concern about the environment, he quickly caught the attention of the person on the receiving end.
“He was interested in starting a community garden at his middle school and wanted to see if there were any resources or help,” Farrah Khan, now mayor of Irvine recalls. “So, I responded. And from there, he’s just been doing one thing after another, and it’s been very impressive.”
With the encouragement of an enthusiastic response, Matthew went to City Hall to pitch his idea supported by academic research on the benefits of such projects. His hard work paid off, and it led to both resources and a valued mentor relationship that continues to this day.
Matthew comes from a second-generation Korean-American family of five. His grandfather, a man who learned to grow vegetables during his childhood in rural South Korea, taught him to garden, and he and his mom keep a small plot in their backyard.
“It was really him who inspired me to begin all of this. Although he isn’t with us anymore, I try to continue his legacy in a lot of the things that I do with Climate Garden,” Matthew says.
Climate Garden is an organization Matthew founded as an 8th grader in 2021. He formed a team of student leaders with neighboring K-12 schools to focus on sustainability, eradicating food insecurity and environmental education. The harrowing experience of being sent home from school due to wildfires and poor air quality moved him to take action.
“I really felt an almost implacable urge to contribute to the cause. I couldn’t let my future burn without trying everything I could,” he emphasizes.
“So, I used my platform as my school’s student body president, and I began doing what I could to achieve realistic reform.”
