What is a "hero"?
If you ask a child, is "good." What is hit in the head by an asteroid and becomes incredibly strong man, monstrously intelligent and pretty damn cool, not necessarily in that order.
is what everyone has always dreamed of becoming.
Save old ladies, kittens in trees and long kisses and unlikely to belle of the day. This is probably because women are not the bad bad guys kidnap ever.
But, we grow ... even if at times slightly.
The hero is "complicated", grows with us.
is not totally good, totally light.
Start to think, to ask questions ... to have shadows.
Our idea of a hero becomes what he is doing what we would do, if only we had the chance. Or the courage when that opportunity arises.
heroes that are identified are usually those who suffer from lack of survival instinct. Their businesses are very dangerous, dramatic, make the scene. They face the danger with a smile, and too brave or too stupid to conceive the idea of four feet of earth and stone with their name written on it.
Then there are those unknown, those who save the world just because they know that if they do not do them, nobody move a finger to do it.
They go to meet the disaster with his head down, cursing, believing that time, no matter how far away from the problem, you certainly will put them up your ass.
I'm not happy, I'm not brave, do not do it for the glory.
They do it simply because someone has to do it.
And if you want something that is done well, you have to do it alone.
THE END --------------------------------------------- ----------------- Written
apart. The first part I do not remember when ...
The second train, after giving an exam. I was in that state of mind where one is usually after the exams, that: "As you think about the answers you have written will not change, then we might as well forget about it." The calm between the test and the result ... panic.
In any case, I like it. Really. And it is strange, since I do not like anything of what I write ...
But okay! Let's go back to studying French, which perhaps is better! Camilla
