What He Didn't Do

I am sure this one will be everywhere today... and in watching the video, it maybe doesn't seem like much. In fact, as I considered it for my blog, I actually had the thought, "Hm, I mean, yeah, I guess. Is that it?"

And two seconds later I wanted to smack myself. Because he seriously could have done NOTHING. He could have sat there and pretended he didn't know what was going on.

But he didn't.

So today, my hero story isn't so much about what he did do. It's about what he didn't do. He didn't sit back and let the man die.

And that makes all the difference. The Husband and I have talked about that. I've shared these stories with him (since he refuses most social media sites that don't have pictures of hunting dogs or fishing stories) and we've talked about how most of these hinge around that moment of "do I take action or just sit and see how this plays out?"

This blog is filled with people who didn't wait and see.
