Yeah, that's right, I know people. I know what you are thinking, I'm something special because I know some pretty important people. Well hell yeah, I am special and I know some of the most special people you will never know. No, not Beyoncé and not Jay Z or Bono or anyone "famous". I know people who matter. Who are special. I know people who have to grieve over the loss of their children. I know the people who have to ignore the stares. I know the people who have to sacrifice everything. I know people who have to wipe tears from their eyes all the time when no one is looking. I know heroes who painfully worry about someone other than themselves. I know the most unbelievebaly strong people who will never be recognized for who they are. I know the people who matter to the people who need them. I know the people who don't eat or sleep because of those who rely on them. I know the stress of not being able to talk to your child. I know the people who lay awake at night accepting the reality that they or someone they love dearly is going to leave us all sooner than they should. I know the people who will forever be the caretakers of those of us less fortunate than you. I know the real heroes who live amongst us unheralded, unrecognized, under-appreciated. I know the mighty!
