R WE THERE YET ??

In our daily life we encounter some of the most gut-wrenching situations and wonder if we were in the same situation,what we would do and how we would handle it.

Thursday November 13th 2008 was one such day for me. I travelled with a group of students to a track event which was almost deadly for a student of another school. Imagine a child running and then falling and then other students and human beings ignoring him.

This student had fallen and was apparently having a seizure which included his TONGUE hanging out of his mouth. Two of my students didn't hesitate in giving up top 50 places in that event to help another human being.

Readers may wonder why this information has been posted. Here's why. NO MATTER what the situation is, we can never forget that life is so short it can be taken away in a huff and puff.

My question now is this, R WE THERE YET where we will willingly put others before self ??
