Good poem, Myrna...They are heroic every single day. Good poem, Myrna. I lost my little store on the ocean to fire, with all my worldly possessions. It was our home and our livelihood when the kids were small. And I didnt get any insurance money - big corporations know how to Not Pay when they have a young fool who knows nothing to deal with. I didnt see the fire, as I was at my mom's. It was devastating but the main thing was we were all alive, it didnt happen when we were inside so I was grateful for that.Sherry Blue Skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10769154286598233146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1773948027407820171.post-72168086706851625272014-01-08T21:13:20.878-07:002014-01-08T21:13:20.878-07:00wow getting to watch them at work...had to get the...wow getting to watch them at work...had to get the heart pumping....and i bet you felt relief too when they succeeded...truly firemen inspire me...smiles.Brian Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722940075884718007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1773948027407820171.post-9131670486619781892014-01-08T18:57:46.557-07:002014-01-08T18:57:46.557-07:00Scary line of work, that of a firefighter.Scary line of work, that of a firefighter.Brandee Shaferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08960175760263515363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1773948027407820171.post-72582140857339893532014-01-08T18:18:08.688-07:002014-01-08T18:18:08.688-07:00Mirror neurons - we are made to feel for each othe...Mirror neurons - we are made to feel for each other, as you well express here :-)<br /><br /><br />ALOHA from Honolulu<br /><a href="http://comfortspiral.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Comfort Spiral</a><br /> > < } } ( ° ><br />Cloudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05853753108637831069noreply@blogger.com
