    I have been a volunteer firefighter since I was 17 years old. I celebrate my 25th anniversary as a part time smoke eater this Aug. I have loved helping people from day one. We get to see the outcome from bad decisions and it sometimes breaks our hearts. I can honestly say that it feels awesome when we get to save a life and help someone that we will probably never see again. We don't expect anything in return which is fine by me.

    Honestly, most of us are just living out our boyhood dreams of riding a firetruck. Lol....

    I know what it feels like to receive a blessing, with NO strings attached!!
    Life is getting harder and harder, I like to give to brighten someones day.
    I also give with knowing how GREAT it feels and that makes me feel GREAT!!
    To watch someones look of disbeief change to utter greatfulness.
    There eyes change from hopelessness to complete Joy. You would never be
    able to understand what giving, to someone that is in need, feels like unless you
    have actually been there yourself!! As I have!!!

    Thanks for the contest!!! You have brighten many of my days!!! I think I help keep you in business!!!
    I love your products!!! Dawn, Keep Up The Good Work!!! You have us that love you!!!! Me Me Me Me Me

    Me and my mom lived together expecting nothing from the rest of the world due to past events, then I realized just because me and her helped ourselves doesn't mean I can't help others. Its that feeling you get when you give someone that extra edge that (at least for me) makes me feel like I have helped someone for the better and hopefully started a series of fortunate events

    Helping other people gives my life some sense of purpose beyond that which it already has.

    When you do something nice for someone else and not expect anything in return - it makes you happier.
    The happier you are the more purposeful your life feels. Giving gets you more !

    Of course when you help someone it makes you feel all warm n fuzzy inside... but for me it all boils down to treating others as I would like to be treated. I know if I ever needed help(wich I have...alot..lol) I would want someone to help me like I would help them. That way we can all help our communities and world to be a better place for us all.
