Today, 3 men died trying to rescue fellow workers from a mine cave in. While it doesn’t matter really what caused either cave in, mountain bumps, or just plain dangerous mining, (Let’s face it, it’s all dangerous), the first loss of life has occurred for sure.

Rescuing is the highest form of regard for human life, when the protective instincts for your own safety are removed in the hunt for someone lost. It’s a role that at it’s base means those mean didn’t intend to get caught in a cave in, but did. The rescuers knew there was possibly more dangerous conditions now, and they went in anyway.

My hats to you, your bravery, and god speed.
