H is for Hero.
A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is brave five minutes longer.

I do not believe we need larger than life hero's to save us from our hard times. We need everyday people with immense hearts and even larger volumes of courage. I like the quote above for that reason.
Heroes can be the guy who sells insurance down the street or the granny who smiles at you every morning at the Circle K. All of us hold a possible hero within us. All we need to do is hang on just a little while longer...
Heard a sermon the other day. God uses ordinary people to do great things.
ReplyDeleteGood post!
Hugs and chocolate!
I love this idea. Being a hero doesn't have to require a huge gesture. Simply making a person's day brighter should qualify. Awesome thought.
ReplyDeleteLove that quote! I know a few everyday heroes. They help make life extra special. #atozchallenge
