If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain:
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain. Emily Dickinson
"Doors Swinging Open" by Frank Bruni, in the September 27, NY Times, is a story that brings the Dickinson poem to mind. It chronicles the journey of Energy Maburutse, a young man with osteogenesis imperfecta from rural Zimbabwe, to Lynn University in Florida.
