Anonymous asked: What inspires you and gives you drive for each new day?
I feel like I have been given gifts to create and I enjoy being able to use my creativity in everything I do. Whether it’s learning, loving, or working I try to enjoy the small things that give me a warm feeling inside. I live for those small feelings of LIFE. I am inspired by others around me and their passions. I truly believe that we are all meant to love one another and there are many ways to live that out. Each day I try to do my best to develop relationships with my friends, strangers and family. I live for the love I see in people. Spiritually speaking, God unconditionally loves us and I live to find/reach understanding so that I am able to share that same love with anyone and everyone.

German medic in early-WWI gas mask
The first “masks” to protect against the deadly gasses such as chlorine (as they could actually result in fatalities, unlike the earliest gasses, which were only lachrymatory agents), were no more than damp cloths placed over the nose and mouth. It was believed that dampening the cloths with concentrated urine was more effective than simple water.
As the war went on, masks naturally got better, and easier to put on, so the effectiveness of gas weapons decreased significantly.
ETA: Forgot to mention what this guy was using. This is a gauze pad that was issued by the Germans shortly after they began using chlorine gas against the Entente power. It was filled with cotton waste, and was soaked in a bicarbonate solution. The tank and filter the medic carries are a basic oxygen tank and delivery system, but it couldn’t be used at the same time as the filtering mask.
