Changing World, Stupid Spy

Under mentioned touching text is a letter written by a fireman, some months after the one thousand fires Greece endured last summer, and addresses to people all over the world.

“I would like to forget:

- Those 3-4 sheeps we didn’t make it to save and heard them frightened as the fire reached them.

- Those birds that didn’t make it to leave their trees as the flames circled them, and were falling all over us like leaves in autumn…

- The terrified faces of my colleges when we saw 50-metres-high all around us.

- The panicked voices of other firemen on the phone, telling people got burnt in their houses…

But I wont forget:

- The people on the helicopters who found us a way to avoid the flames at the very last minute.

- The governments, who let people build houses at places where once stood dense forests.

- That we made it to save a family and their dog, animals and properties from the flames.. it will help me sleep at night…
