Umthi unokuba zizinto ezininzi: isihluzo somoya, indawo yokudlala, isakhiwo somthunzi, indawo ephawulekayo. Enye yezona njongo ziphakamileyo onokuzenza umthi, nangona kunjalo, njengesikhumbuzo.
Kutshanje, ngenkxaso evela eCalifornia ReLeaf, i IGadi yoLuntu eNyolekayo (IECG) yakwazi ukutyala imithi engama-50 ngenjongo enjalo.
Ngomhla wama-23 kuMatshi, imithi yatyalwa kwindawo California State San Bernardino Veteran Impumelelo Centre ukunika imbeko kunye nesikhumbuzo samagqala exesha elidlulileyo, angoku, kunye nekamva. IZiko leMpumelelo yamagqala libonelela ngeenkqubo kunye neenkonzo ezizodwa kwiimfuno zamalungu enkonzo, kubandakanywa igumbi apho amagqala angabafundi anokudibana khona phakathi kweeklasi, anxibelelane omnye nomnye kwaye abambe amaqela okufunda. IGadi entsha yeVeterans Tree ayizukwenza isikhumbuzo senkonzo yabo kuphela, kodwa ikwanika abo bafundi banye enye indawo yokunxibelelana kwaye babonakalise.
Elinye lamavolontiya ngaloo mini, oliGqirha leMfazwe yase-Iraq, laqaphela utshintsho olwalusenziwa yisitiya esandula ukutyalwa kudade wabo, iGorha leMfazwe lase-Afghan. “Kwakumnandi ukubona udade wethu encuma kwakhona kwaye ezonwabele.”
IGadi yeVeterans Living Memorial iya kubonelela ngolu hlobo lwesiqabu kwamanye amagqala kunye nabafundi abasebenzisa le ndawo, nabo. Uphononongo lwakutsha nje lubonise ukuba ixesha elichithwe kwiindawo eziluhlaza hayi kuphela kunciphisa ukudinwa kwengqondo, kodwa ikwabonelela ngeenzuzo ezibalulekileyo impilo yengqondo.
Omnye umthathi-nxaxheba uthe, "Oku kusenokungabonakali kuninzi, kodwa kumntu ofuna umzuzwana wokuzola kunye nokucamngca ngelixa esekhampasini, le gadi iya kuhamba indlela ende ukuze bagqibezele imini yabo."
