Responsibility
God I’m such a sap. I’m watching on my DVR the Olympic Opening Ceremony and I just got to the part where China enters.
The announcers spoke of the 9 year old boy, Lin Hao, who was in the earthquake a few months ago. He freed himself, then went back to pull two classmates from the rubble and carry them to safety. When asked why he did that he apparently said, “I’m a class leader, a hall monitor. It’s my responsibility.”
And here I am, sitting on the couch crying. Sheesh. He’s the cutest little boy, too.
I cried too! We’re both saps together.
I nearly cried too. And asked Dh numerous times, “Isn’t he so cute?”
He looked so little and cute next to Yao Ming. Amazing that he went back to save others.
DH and I both teared up too!
Another sap here…bawled my eyes out!
