a plane went down yesterday in the middle of New York. the pilot landed that bird on water and made sure his passengers were all safely off of the sinking vessel before he disembarked.
the passengers prayed, made peace, were shocked to find their second life awaited them all and did not squander their moment with pushing to the front of the line, by shoving the infirm to the ground and leaving the injured behind.
the people on that plane made a choice to embrace their new lives and i feel fortunate today being touched by their stories. how amazing that a city known for it's indifference had a harbour full of civilian first responders, ready to put themselves on the line and rescue perfect strangers.
doing the right thing isnt supposed to be a hard choice, but people are lauded for it more and more, because we do it less and less.
thank you, new york. thank you, sully.
Hot damn, that is spot on.
