Although we are aware that we have the best
trained, most efficient volunteer firefighters and
ambulance service in the state, we don’t properly
appreciate them until we are faced with a crisis
that requires their help.
They nope that we never need them but they
are at our disposal 24-hours a day. And chances
are that at some point in our lives, we will need
their service.
I can testify from personal experience that the
ambulance personnel looked like angels from
heaven the several times my family has needed
them. They are a special breed — in more ways
than one!
Then there is the repairman, plumber and
mechanic that became the person of the hour in
an emergency. It was worth every penny I paid
them when the heater quit working or the base-
ment was flooded, or my car was stalled.
The moral to this story? I’m not exactly sure
Except that I wish my big toe would quit hurting.
With every painful step I take I am going to
appreciate the parts of my body that don’t hurt.
And I am going to pat every volunteer and even-
service person even time I meet them hoping
that my appreciation will ensure that I don’t
have to call on them.
I wonder if it will work? If it does. I’m going to
kiss my toe every day.

TSN’T IT INTERESTING HOW we never give
JLour big toe a second thought until it hurts?
(Have you ever had an ingrown toenail?) Or how
we take our digestive process for granted until it
goes on the blink? (What about indigestion or an
ulcer?) The part of our body that hurts or doesn’t
work becomes the focus of our attention.
The list of things we don’t appreciate until
they quit working would be endless. Our
eyesight. Our hearing. Our speech. Our minds.
Even our possessions...such as heaters when it is
cold or air conditioners when it is hot, our cars,
our appliances (dishwashers, washing machines,
dryers, televisions)...on and on and on and on.
We don’t truly appreciate some people — not
because they don’t perform well — but because
we haven’t had a reason to need their services.
There are many such people...repairmen, doc-
tors, lawyers, fire departments, emergency
medical services.
It only takes a minor incident to make us
aware that our bodies are made up of many
parts...and in an emergency we realize that no
man is an island. We all need each other — some
more than others, depending on our situation.
Think about it...who would be the most impor-
tant people in the world to you if your house was
on fire? Or if a family member was in the middle
of a medical emergency?
