Heroes
Famous storytellers create heroes everyone can appreciate and
admire. Then they place them into amazing, shocking,
dangerous scenes — where it seems certain that they
will suffer broken limbs, broken hearts, and worse. Finally
— once the tension becomes unbearable — they save
them from these situations.
The hero kills the dragon, overcomes the obstacles, and exits
as a winner. He walks into the sunset, brushing the dust off
his sleeves, or simply rinsing his hands with a little water.
At times, he may have his clothes ripped, his property
destroyed — but never, never, is his spirit or good
humor broken.
This, then, is the formula for greatness — to be
personalities, solid as rocks, standing firm as the waves
that beat around them. Now, while this is easier said then
done — while we all fall, many times over — we
can strive for this goal.
We need to try to be happy, no matter what. Then we will be
heroes.
