HERO


You are not a hero because you saved the world. You are not a hero because the world stands still in applause at the sight of you. You are not a hero because you are putting on a costume designed to your taste. You are not a hero because everybody on the street wants to get a shot with you and wants your autograph. You are not a hero because of all these.
That day you fed that hungry child, that day you helped to that old man/woman with those loads; that day you put a smile on that child’s face on the street, that day you went out of your way to give help where no one else would; that day you saved a soul from dying from hunger, that day you beat your chest and said “I will never rest until these ones have a reason to smile”, that day you became a reason for someone to smile because of your good deeds, that day; you became a HERO.
With every knowledge comes a consciousness, with every consciousness comes power, and with every power comes the responsibility to protect, influence and even to cause change lives. Looking at the faces passing by on the street, even those who call themselves ordinary, I see people who have the power to cause change, I see people who can affect the root of the society, I see people who can give hope to the common person, I SEE HEROES.
You know, there is no one who was born with something that the society does not need, so look inside of your very own, there is a HERO THAT LIES IN YOU.
LOOK FOR A FACE TODAY, PUT A SMILE ON IT, AND BECOME A HERO.
