Carrying takes commitment and courage. Both. I'm only going to live once, and I can't say how I'll react when faced with death. I can say I usually turn ice cold, emotionless and calculating in the emergencies I've helped with so far. It was always someone else who was hurt though, and it was always over. When my kids are hurt, or emit that familiar - you know it immediately - scream, I'm usually going 10k MPH by the time I get to them, then the calm comes back. I don't know. I do know, I carry everywhere now. No more excuses.
Well, for a while. Until my humanity creeps back in and I become complacent again.
These events remind all of us how close and dear life and family are. Treasure what you have, worry less about what you don't, and trust God to sort things out.

Nothing kills the incentive of men faster than a healthy sense of entitlement. Nothing kills entitlement faster than a healthy sense of achievement.
