Reading this article about Wesley Autrey's saving of a teenager who had fallen onto the subway tracks just as a train was pulling into the station just sent chills through my spine.

Even with his own two daughters waiting on the station!

What a humanity-affirming event for both his daughters and the rescued kid.

In his own words after refusing to be called a hero, “I don’t feel like I did something spectacular; I just saw someone who needed help, I did what I felt was right.”

Mr. Autrey, you are a HERO. In fact you are my first American Hero of 2007.

Please take a bow.

One Love, Bro'.
