NO I am not the author I forwarded it to the list because I too thought that it was the best thing I have read in a long time. It was Forwarded to me by [email protected] I am trying to find out from her who was the author. today she sent me this: ~ Welcome to Heartwarmers4u ~ The best thing to happen to mornings since the Sun! Your morning Irish blessing: May misfortune follow you the rest of your life, but never catch up. As the full fury of Hurricane Floyd is being felt along the Southeastern United States, true stories of heroism and kindness are surfacing -- proving once again how the "human spirit triumphs over adversity." Today, we are glad to report that one of our most beloved writers, Roger Kiser, a Heartwarmer Gem, is back home in his Georgia home, safe and sound, after the storm's wrath passed his area. He gives us his first hand account of what happened to his life in the past 72 hours. However, other areas are still in Floyd's path -- our thoughts and prayers are for everyone touched by this storm. We're sure that we will hear many stories over the next few days. Sometimes it takes the worst of circumstances to bring out our best qualities. Sorry I caused so much confusion, but I could not get over that story. Not one instance of a "ME FIRSTER" in it.
