10 firefighters who risked thier lives to save cats
For Our World a Poem Written by 11 year old Mattie Stepanek on 9.11
We need to stop. Just stop. Stop for a moment. Before anybody Says or does anything That may hurt anyone else. We need to be silent. Just silent. Silent for a moment. Before we forever lose The blessing of songs That grow in our hearts. We need to notice. Just notice. Notice for a moment. Before the future slips away Into ashes and dust of humility. Stop, be silent, and notice. In so many ways, we are the same. Our differences are unique treasures. We have, we are, a mosaic of gifts To nurture, to offer, to accept. We need to be. Just be. Be for a moment. Kind and gentle, innocent and trusting, Like children and lambs, Never judging or vengeful Like the judging and vengeful. And now, let us pray, Differently, yet together, Before there is no earth, no life, No chance for peace.

another example of the news trying to use certain parts of the full message to move audience in their favor though
Well, Fire fighter dude certainly didn’t hold back on his thoughts.
Volunteer firefighters
Volunteer medical professionals
And non professional volunteers that you rarely hear about.
“And that is why, no human would ever risk their life to save another.” “Firefighters.” “Huh?” “Firefighters disprove everything you spent the last ten minutes going on about.”
