Where Heroes are Born...



 

 Image source and stories

It is not on a sweet,
Still,
Soft and
Peaceful
Coral morn
That this world’s heroes
Are born…

No, it is
In the hard-core
Life-and-death decisions
Of putting others before
Self
Where flesh is sacrificed, scarred
And torn
Here; this is where
Heroes are born

The pictures out of Oklahoma in the past few days are heart-wrenching!



Our prayers continue.
