S.O. [7]

'You can't save the world, but maybe you can save the person who means the world to you.'

There is always someone on your mind, whether it is your parent, sibling, significant other or best friend. Or perhaps the person who you know is not in the best situation. There is always someone on your mind.

But are you on someone elses? We always wonder who is thinking of us, our crush (the boy next door) or even your mothers. We never know and we may never know. Someday we may, but right now we don't.

For the time being though, can you think of how many times you've given you're all for someone that you really care about? There are people who would risk thier lives, run into fires offer thier own healty lungs. Someone out there would give the world for you to survive.

Think of it this way, how many heroes are there in the world? That actually fly and save hundreds of people a year? Besides firemen, doctors, policemen and lifegaurds, I'm not sure who does. I have met a few heroes, they live in my town. I appreciate all they have done for the community and in turn I hope to give a little back. None of these people can save the world but they do save people. Maybe not people they particularly like but they do save these people. These people are heroes.

Can you be a heroe to someone? Can you help the one person that means the world to you? Together we all can form together to be a hero to the world, but we can't be heroes individually to the world. Perhaps there are individuals who can become heroes, every day heroes, like those who rescue the cat from the high trees or someone who travels six lanes of traffic to give you a tank of gas. Let's unite to save the world, but still be the person who goes home and saves the person that truly means the world to you.

Give a smile too, they're free and easy to give out. You never know, it may actually makes somebodys world of a day.
