Hes the guy next door - a mans man with the memory of a little boy.
He has never gotten over the excitement of engines and sirens and danger.

Hes a guy like you and me with warts and worries and unfulfilled dreams.
Yet he stands taller than most of us.

Hes a fireman.

He puts it all on the line when the bell rings.

A fireman is at once the most fortunate and the least fortunate of men.

Hes a man who saves lives because he has seen too much death.

Hes a gentle man because he has seen the awesome
power of violence out of control.

Hes responsive to a childs laughter because his arms have held
too many small bodies that will never laugh again.

Hes a man who appreciates the simple pleasures of life -
hot coffee held in numb, unbending fingers - a warm bed for bone
and muscle compelled beyond feeling - the camaraderie of brave men -
the divine peace and selfless service of a job well done in the name of all men.

He doesnt wear buttons or wave flags or shout obscenities.

When he marches, it is to honor a fallen comrade.

He doesnt preach the brotherhood of man.

He lives it.

that was very nice Brian.  It takes a lot to do what you do and to keep at it, even with everything you see and do.  Growing up with it all my life, with the fire department and the police department seeing the photos of people who no longer will walk, talk, or laugh and seeing the evidence of either drunk driving or just too tired to drive, it always made me sad and I know that is why I chose nursing to help those who might still have a chance to walk, talk and laugh once more.
