... Fire is not a easy thing to fight off, especially when its a choice between life or death. When in duty a fire-fighter reveals physical strength, endurance, and motivation. Fire is an element that helps people in many ways, but it is also an element of destruction. Fire has taken the lives of many people and it is something that is hard to defeat when it is at large. Fire becomes an element of fear, and that is something fire-fighters have to get used to. They help people tackle that fear by facing it head on and trying everything to save others. Relating this back to the first quote, "You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which you think you cannot do", a fire-fighter builds up on his inner courage with every experience he or she has faced on trying to help others by putting there lives on stake for others. It's amazing how fire-fighters they have willing mind to help those in need, even though if it's risking their life for humanity. The courage to share and endure the ordeal of those who need them is powerful. Also, this is a great example of the indecent that occurred at 9/11 with the twin towers. Fire-fighters came to the rescue to lay their lives on the line to keep their fellow citizens safe. For those fire-fighters who at time aren't able to save some people, it takes vast amount of courage for them too see people burning to death because they know that they can't save them. In the end, it takes a large amount of courage to do what has to be done in their everyday life...
