It makes perfect sense that children are big fans of superheroes. They never fail to save the day because of their amazing bravery, superhuman skills, and gorgeous attire. They have a large following and are praised and acknowledged for their valiant actions.
Alright, that’s excellent. Let us discuss the world’s real heroes. Regarding those who, in spite of everything, move boldly. They cannot lift automobiles with just their hands, they cannot fly, and they are not resistant to laser radiation. Their bravery and tenacity are their assets.
Firefighters are highly skilled individuals who are capable of handling any circumstance that arises on the scene, including putting out big fires and building expansions. Even though they constantly run the risk of losing their life, they are committed to saving the day and have a well-defined mission.
Like the rest of us, these folks lead regular lives. Their needs, wants, aspirations, and dreams to come true are waiting for them back at home with their family.
Wildfires are extremely dangerous because of their rapid and unrelenting spread. When a fire burns healthy trees, it can cause further damage and destruction by spreading to populated areas, injuring or killing numerous animals, and destroying homes.
Extreme weather caused comparable problems in central Portugal, where the only things left were ash and death. The wildfire claimed the lives of over 60 people and injured over 100 more. Although more than 1,500 firefighters have been dispatched to the scene, they frequently fail to put out the fires.
Between battling the flames and taking part in rescue efforts, they don’t have much time for food or sleep. A bunch of firefighters were shocked to learn that they had a 30-minute snooze period. They exploited what few openings there were in the grass.
A bystander noticed them, snapped a picture, and posted it to the internet, where it went viral right away. Please feel free to look at the accompanying pictures and tell me more about these superheroes if you share my respect for them.
If you see a man with one painted fingernail, here’s what it means
When Elliot Costello and a group of other people visited Cambodia, he had an encounter with a young girl named Thea.
Little did Elliot know that this encounter would have an impact so profound on him that it would help start a movement whose goal is to end sexual abuse against children.
Namely, Thea always had nail polish on her tiny nails. One day, as she and Elliot chatted, she asked to paint one of his nails. He agreed and was happy to speak to the chatty girl, but he then learned that she was once a victim of sexual abuse.
“As she painted one of my nails, I assured her I would always keep it that way to remember her, and by extension, her suffering,” Elliot said.
This motivated Elliot to try and make positive change among men so that less and less children fall victims of sexual abuse.
That is when he came up with the movement called #PolishedMan where men put nail polish on one of their nails. That one nail represents the one in five children who will be victims of sexual violence.
Polished Man works towards ending sexual violence against children. According to the organization, “being a Polished Man means challenging violent behavior and language, both locally and globally.”
Elliot believes that since men are responsible for 96% of this type of violence against children globally, they should be catalyst for change if we are ever to see an end to the abuse of innocent children.
The goal with the painted nail isn’t just to remind people of the number of children who are abused every single day, but to serve as a conversation starter about this reality, leading to new ideas about prevention. He also hopes that people will start donating to “support educational programs and resources for child survivors of abuse,” as per APlus.
We hope that more men, including celebrities would be willing to join this movement.
