You ever wonder what it would be like if you could go back in time and stop some of these people who died extremely young, people like Chris Biccheri (Sorry if I spelled it wrong) or PJ Sora (again, sorry if I spelled it wrong)? If you could go back and warn em? I wonder what the world would be like if that would happen.
And I mean no disrespect to them or anyone close to them or anyone else who has died. I know that I, personally, didn't have much of a connection with either of them, other than the fact that I'd met them before. It's just something I think about sometimes, and I don't know why. It's like it's something I wish I could do.
And I guess I can relate it to firefighting. Maybe that's my way of making that wish come true. Maybe I can stop someone from dying. Maybe I can be the arms that save them from a death they don't deserve. As a brilliant character once said, "The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference."
I want to save someone's life that would otherwise be extinguished. Maybe then I can make sense of the one life I can't save. My own.
