When the Titanic was sinking, three ships were nearby.
The first was named Sampson. It was only seven miles away and saw Titanic’s distress signals. However, it was engaged in illegal seal hunting. Fearing they might get caught, the crew turned their ship in the opposite direction and fled.
Think about this ship. You’ll see that many of us are just like it—people who care only about themselves, indifferent to the struggles of others. The people on that ship were no different.
The second ship was Californian. It was only fourteen miles away, surrounded by dense ice. The captain saw Titanic’s desperate signals for help but decided that the conditions were unfavorable and it was too dark. Instead of taking action, he chose to sleep, planning to check the situation in the morning. The crew comforted themselves, thinking, “It’s probably not that serious.”
This ship reflects the mindset of many—those who believe that nothing can be done in a crisis but might act when conditions are more favorable.
The final ship was Carpathia.
It was actually heading in the opposite direction and was about fifty-eight miles away when its crew received Titanic’s distress signals. The captain fell to his knees on the deck, praying to God for guidance. Then, with full force, they broke through the ice and rushed toward the Titanic.
Because of this ship’s decision, 705 passengers from the Titanic survived.
Remember, you will always have countless reasons to avoid responsibility. But those who act selflessly in times of crisis are the ones who leave a lasting mark on people’s hearts.
History may not always remember them, but their names will live on in the stories passed down through generations.
