Sometimes the third graders didnt welcome Philip into their group and usually tricked him. This was not because he was older, but because he was “different”. You see, Philip suffered from a condition called Downss Syn to each child. On that beautiful spring day, the children were to go out and discover for themselves some symbol of “new life” and place it inside the plastic eggs. After the children returned to the classroom, the teacher opened their eggs one by one, asking each child to explain that symbol of “new life”. The first opened egg contained a flower. Everyone cheered. In another was a butterfly. When the teacher opened the last egg, it was empty. “Thats stupid,” said someone. The teacher felt a pull at his shirt. It was Philip. Looking up, Philip said, “Its mine. I did it. Its empty. I have new life, because the tomb is empty.” Not a sound was heard in class at all. From that day on, Philip became a real part of the group.

The Philips new life wish was emptyBAt 4:53 pm. on January 12, United Nations aid worker Jens Kristensen was at his desk reading documents on the third floor of the Christopher Hotel, which served as UN headquarters in PortauPrince, when he felt a tremor. Four seconds later, the earthquake hit.“In a split second, I considered whether to run for the door or hide under my desk,” says Kristensen, 48. “The door was closed, and I thought that maybe it was too far and I would be caught under falling debris, so I hid under the table.” A bookshelf topped onto his desk, protecting him from being crushed by rubble and trapping him in a tiny pocket. “I was confined as if in a small coffin,” he says. It was so dark, and it didnt matter if his eyes were open or closed. He used the light from his mobile phone to see around him. He found, among other items, a jar of instant coffee. “I had no food or water, only the coffee to suck on if I needed it.”At about 6:30 am. on January 17, an oil leak silenced the buildings generators, and Kristensen was able to hear muffled voices above where he was buried. “I thought, I was too tired to bang and shout. But then I realized, I had to take every chance. This could be one.” So he called out. Six hours later, Kristensen saw his rescuers faces. “It was so amazing. I felt I had received a second birthday,” he recalls.Dehydration and pains but with only a bruise and a scratch, Kristensen took three days to recover. The UN lost more than 90 people in Haiti. But Kristensen says that the outpouring of love helps heal the pain: “The genuine happiness of people toward me here has been wonderful.
