Everyday Heroes

BellSouth

Quiet acts of heroism occur everyday, I'm sure. It's just too bad that we don't know about them or don't recognize the courage and commitment it took to fulfill the assignment. This man's heroism wasn't recognized until after his death. Although Mr. McCright was a war hero, the lesson here is applicable in our everyday lives. Mr. McCright had no idea that keeping the ledgers he created safe would be an act of heroism. He just did it because it was his job. So, if there are people around you who do extraordinary things everyday in the course of their lives, tell them. Don't wait until it's too late for them to experience the pleasure of a simple thank you.
