Mr. Roy Jornales wanted to deepen his engagement with the underprivileged, providing them with moments of joy while showcasing his genuine care and support for their well-being, as this is usually how he shows it—by treating abandoned or palaboy youths to food.
Yet I feel that I never was a greater artist than now. When, while the lovely valley teems with vapour around me, and the meridian sun strikes the upper surface of the impenetrable foliage of my trees, and but a few stray gleams steal into the inner sanctuary, I throw myself down among the tall grass by the trickling stream; and, as I lie close to the earth, a thousand unknown plants are noticed by me: when I hear the buzz of the little world among the stalks, and grow familiar with the countless indescribable forms of the insects and flies.
