Imagine recieving this text 15 years after a 4 year friendship that grew apart, as life went on. :

"I'm really happy to hear you found peace in this life. Your drive to succeed impressed the hell out of an 18 yr. old me, I remember you always made "doing the right thing" seem cool.

That mentality has gotten my pasty white ass out of some pretty tight fkn jams these past few years. It's also allowed me to do a lot of good in a place where horrible shit is the norm.

I try to implement this into the new medics and emts that cycle through my firehouse. I'm starting to see that "right is cool" mentality spread.

You are a big part of a group of people that got me to this point - I've wanted to thank you for that for a long time."
...

You see, you imprint, more than you can focus on...

One action, one kind word, or simply your example, can change a generation.

Love this :)
