His name was Fleming and he was a poor Scottish farmer! One day he heard a cry for help coming from a nearby shallow swamp. He dropped his tools and ran to the swamp. There, mired to his waist in black mud, was a terrified boy, screaming and struggling to free himself. Farmer Fleming saved the boy from what could have been a slow and terrifying death. The next day a beautiful carriage pulled up at the farmers gate. It was the boy's father, the farmer had saved. "I want to repay you," said the nobleman. "You saved my son's life." " No, I can't accept payment for doing good," replied the farmer. At that moment, the farmer's own son(Alexander Fleming) walked in. "Is that your son?" the nobleman asked. " Yes" Fleming replied proudly. "I'll make you a deal. Let me provide him with the level of education my son will enjoy. If your son is anything like you his father, then he'll no doubt grow up to be a man the world will be proud of." And that he did! The farmer's son attended the very best of schools and in time, graduated from St. Mary's hospital medical school in London and went on to become known throughout the world as the noted Sir Alexander Fleming, the founder of the great drug Penicillin.
Years afterward, the same nobleman's son who was saved from the swamp was attacked by pneumonia. What saved his life this time? Penicillin! The name of the nobleman? Lord Randolph Churchill. His son's name? Sir Winston Churchill.
"What goes around comes around."
No good you do is lost even when nobody appreciates you.
