I recently learned about a woman with an extraordinary story. She seems to be well-known in the US, but for some reason, her renown has not spread internationally in the same way as that of other American heroes. Some heroes carry out their struggles in public and are motivated by the cheers of society. But this heroine carried out astonishing acts of bravery in the dead of night, deriving energy only from her conviction to the mission. Reading her story left me wondering about the mindset of a person that risked her life to escape the depths of hell, only to turn around and head back to save those still trapped in the fire. Is her bravery something to aspire to, or was she just uniquely wired?
