Taking the Bullet

It seems that every time there is a mass murder, like the one that occurred in Aurora, there are unpredictable acts of heroism. Three young men died in that theater, each shielding their girlfriends from a shower of bullets. We heard similar stories occurring during the attempted assassination of Gabby Giffords, the Virginia Tech shootings and especially on September 11. And that is only the beginning.
Too bad that we have to learn about the heroes who are living among us in this way. Yet it is comforting at times like these to know that ordinary people will do great things in the midst of tragedy.
God bless them all.
