Subject I am a Firefigher
Body: I am a Volunteer Fire Fighter...
I perform at my best when you are at your worst...
I don't think any one life is worth more then another...
I don't want to give my life for your; but I will take that with honor if I must...
I've seen the good die, and the bad live...
I know what it is like to miss a meal or a special occasion to respond to a stranger in a moment's notice...
I have had to go to work in the morning... after being up all night to try and save a house that meant the world to a family...
I protect my neighbors... as those who have the ability to protect have the responsibility to protect...
I have spent countless unpaid hours and many of my own dollars bettering myself to be able to help you better...
I have lost girlfriends/boyfriends because they couldn't handle the "risks" associated with my hobby...
I own Backdraft and Ladder49 and have every word known in my heart...
My other car is a Fire Engine...
I have been up to the doors of hell, and spit water into the Devil's face...
I have seen Angels come to take my brother and sister away...
I have watched other Firefighters develop, and others leave...
I know the difficulty of fighting a fire as a volunteer... not knowing who will show up to help you...
I know the horrible burning sensation of crawling on a burning floor... pushing... looking... for somebody who may or may not still be with us...
I'm not better then you... I have the ability to save you...
