At times I think of all I see
in my job from day to day
So many times I want to quit
yet, something makes me stay
So many times I have questioned
this path that I must take
and how someone's life will be affected
over the decisions that I make
I went to school and learned the skills
to become an EMT
but when the class was over
You weren't finished teaching me
The most important lessons I have learned
are the ones you teach me every day
to have compassion for human life
for I could be in their place
And although I may see the worst of the world
You have trained me to look for the best
You have taught me to love and care for all
You have blessed me with EMS
