An Occasional Sense Of Melancholy

A toast to heroism!

Here is to the people who run into burning buildings instead of out.

Here is to the soldiers who run to the sound of the guns instead of away.

Remember, a hero is someone who does something that could them killed in order to save others. Being a hero is not the same as being determined, or being brave. Without the risk, there is no heroism.

So, to the heroes! Too many died.
