Becoming a firefighter is something I have wanted to do almost my whole life...from around the age of five. as I have said to some people, I want to feel the glory of bringing someone’s child, parent, friend, loved one out of harms reach. I want to see their face light up with  thanks. I want to see the smiling faces of little kids while we pass by their house. I do understand its not always gonna be smiling faces or thanks that I will get, but I’m willing to take that. I wont beat myself up if I give it my best. I know disappointments and heartaches will come, but I’m willing to take that risk to do the job I’ve always dreamed of doing.
