HERO AND SAVIOR

 

“Do you think I don’t realize how much I owe you? There’s no telling how I would have ended up if you hadn’t come along. I was losing my mind – I didn’t know what was wrong – I couldn’t cope, or control anything.”

 

“Jim.”

 

“No, I was losing it. I could have lost everything. My work, my life.”

 

“Jim.”

 

“Instead, thanks to you, I’ve found out who I really am. What I can accomplish using my senses. I’ve got real purpose, now. I can help people. You couldn’t begin to understand what that means….”

 

“Jim. That’s what makes you a hero.”
