Books:
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.-Dylan Thomas
Heroes:
I believe we encounter heroes everyday, we just have to recognize them. I had the fortunate pleasure of meeting the safety chief for the World Trade Centers who sent the fireman up. Like it or not, that man is a hero for what he has to deal with everyday of his life.But there are two true heroes in my life. My mother. My grandfather. Both have taught me the true value of life and that is the greatest lesson of all.
