Lately I've been hearing a lot of people tell me that they are impressed with my actions and I've been called a Hero. I don't feel like that. I feel like this is simply the right thing to do. There are a few people out there who really "get" what I'm feeling and will understand the reasons for my actions. These people risk their lives every day for the benefit of others.
For all the firemen, policemen and ambulance attendants:
When you see someone collapsed on the street, you go to look after them instead of looking the other way, when there's a fire, you run towards it instead of running in fear and when there's a car accident, you hear the call for help instead of calling for someone else. When someone needs help, you'll risk your life for them.
No one who does things like this asks to be called “hero”. I know that I feel really strange about the attention, and I know that the firemen don’t crave acknowledgment. It’s just what “we” do. And I’m proud to be in that “we” group.
BTW, my husband’s a fireman, my Dad was a firemen, my brother-in-law’s a cop, and most of my girlfriends are married to firemen. Cool people run in our family J
