RESCUE

We went to the Telus Science Center on the weekend and seen the IMAX showing of "RESCUE".
Essentially, it was about the Haiti earthquake and how ships, airplanes, helicopters and the people who operated them came to help.
I really liked it because it was about the people, the individuals themselves who worked in various occupations like the Canadian military or a Volunteer firefighter in California or a pilot with the American Airforce. It showed how an individual became a bunch of individuals, all coming together for a common cause.
The end result was a global effort. A united human global effort.
It was very inspiring and very humbling.
The documentary did not get into the complications or corruption that was underlying with Haiti but that's not what it was about.
It was a message about potential and a message of what we can achieve on our own and as a team.
It gave me hope for human nature and an insight into our potential.
It also made me want to be a firefighter!
