who rescued comrades in battle,
or taught a young girl how to shed tears of joy.

If you had, you would not be a Hero.

in the midst of a holiday bustle.

you will notice the gentle touch
and will be able to respond. Remember...
There are no small acts of kindness.
Every compassionate act makes large the world.
