Why is it suddenly news?
When someone reach out during the holiday's seasons.
And help someone.

When others does it 365 days of the year.

We know the news seems spiritual around Thanksgiving and Christmas.
With the human interest stories.

We can name folks that seeks no attention at all.
Hardly wants a reporter using them to win a Peabody's award.
Which makes you wonder about them.
When do their compassion really begins.

To serve and protect.
That's what policemen and firemen does.
And around the holidays they really gets respected by the news.
The same group that tears them down.
When a rogue goes wrong.

So, why is it suddenly news?
When kindness is shown during the holiday.
All because they didn't have to do a thing.
