Honestly
I don’t understand why the majority of human beings fool themselves into thinking they have to be with someone to be happy or “feel complete”.
Doesn’t it feel much better to be be assured of how you effect others lives in a more positive, self sacrificing, and unselfish way?
What makes you different is who you are, if you’re living your life by letting people,...

I just realized how much I hate most medics, when they arent bitching and complaining because they had to leave the station for a basic sick call they have this superiority complex which makes them think they are better then everyone around them. Just because I wear a shirt with a fire departments name on it doesnt mean I dont have the same medical cert as you.
Why the fuck do they they take...

It’s good to know that even though we have made mistakes … . and sometimes live selfishly, the opportunity to open your mind and reach outwardly will always be there.

A Fireman’s Wish… ” I Wish You Could ” I wish you could see the sadness of a businessman as his livelihood goes up in flames Or that family returning home, only to find their house and belongings damaged or destroyed. I wish you could know What it is to search a burning bedroom for trapped children, flames rolling above your head, your palms and knees burning as you crawl,...

Rant: I love how it seems like I’m the only one on shift with medical certs that knows how to properly do even basic skills. I love my medics out here, but my guys can be such whine bags sometimes. Is holding C-Spine really that hard folks? Oh and if you have no medical training whatsoever id appreciate it if you didn’t bitch because your guy took my bags and forgot to leave me a head...

I make holding your hand seem like the biggest thing in the world when I am cutting you out of your car. I can make 5 minutes feel like a lifetime when I go into a burning house to save your family. I make those…

Why do I feel like I have to be a poster boy to get the complete package. I’m sorry, regardless I won’t settle for less then what I want. I can be without, until the day that it happens.

You’re the Northern Wind Sending shivers down my spine You’re like fallen leaves In an autumn night You’re the lullaby Singing me to sleep You are the other half You’re like the missing piece Oh my love Oh my love Oh my love You don’t know What you do to me You are all four seasons Rolled into one You’re like the cold December snow In the warm July sun I’m...
I feel like I’m growing old way to fast.

It’s surprising to me how someone could be so about loving you one moment and in a short few weeks afterwards be totally in love with someone else, this totally reinforces my decision to end said relationship over two months ago.
Human beings are extremely deceiving and mostly look out for ones own interest, even if the intentions were in the right place.
By no means do I exclude...
Travis, Kevin and I, just pulled booster 181 out of some deep sand with booster 185. The most excitment we’ve gotten all night … . . not that I’m complaining.

You know you're a First Responder when..
infidelstrong:
You find rubber gloves (probably Nitrile) in your on-duty clothing and regular every day wear. Jackets, shirts or pants.
When you have a box in your car and you’ve used them by being first on the scene of an MVA headed home after a 24 hour shift.

Interesting.
How you think you know someone and in actuality you know very little, also how others perceive you and in reality who you actually are as a person is something I find security in.
I may not be the most wealthy male my age, but I feel honored to sacrifice what little I do have. I’m secure in knowing that I’am where I’m supposed to be, and have the knowledge and experience to know...
“Firemen are going to get killed. When they join the department they face that fact. When a man becomes a fireman his greatest act of bravery has been accomplished. What he does after that is all in the line of work. They were not thinking of getting killed when they went where death lurked. They went there to put the fire out, and got killed. Firefighters do not regard themselves as...
