FIREFIGHTER'S WORDS -114- THE FLAME INSIDE
There is a flame, a flame that burns inside of us. Most of the time, we as firefighters try not to fight it, it keeps us going, from house to house or wreck to wreck, we know that once we put that gear on, we are stronger than superman. The flame that burns eternally inside of us pushes us to achieve better things not only for ourselves but for others as well, we risk our lives for others, not because they call us firefighters, but because of that ember. We bust ours to save theirs, it’s what we do, it’s how we do it. Not every one has that flame, we are a few select, we face the devil inside every house, but somehow we always come out with wings, we love it, if we didn’t, why would we do it? Always remember, WE LIVE TO FIGHT AND FIGHT TO LIVE... and I represent Huntsville Fire Department In Scott County Tennessee
