Heros: who are yours?
Regardless of who we are, there is someone in each of our lives that we look up to and admire. There are people that retain “hero status” with us our whole lives. There are other people that are heroes for a time, but we then move on because of circumstances, a change of ideals, our hero has changed in some way, etc. Perhaps you don’t necessarily call these people heroes but they have characteristics and things about them that make us look up to them and admire them. No matter if we call them heroes or not, there is a reason that we find them special or unique….there’s something about them that makes them stand out.
“If you want to know what a man's character is really like, don't ask him to tell you his creed or his code (for everyone has a prettified public version of these), but ask him to tell you the living person he most admires, for hero
worship is the truest index of a man's private nature.”
~ Sydney J. Harris
The things that we admire about these “heroes” tells a lot about our own set of ideals, our characteristics, our belief system, etc. Most often than not, the person that we look up to and admire holds qualities that we try to put into practice in our own life. The character of this person (or it may be more than one) is something that we probably try to emulate.
Our “heroes,” the people we admire, the ones we look u p to….they often become our mentors and our teachers. If it’s someone close to you, they’ve probably touched you more than you realize. Have you taken a close look at how you live your life to see the impact of how these people have influenced you?
"The legacy of heroes is the memory of a great name and the inheritance of a great example."
~ Benjamin Disraeli
Think about the person that you look up to and admire. The person that you call your “hero.” There may be more than one. Create a layout to highlight this person(s). Talk about how they have influenced your life. Talk about WHY you look up to and admire them.
To get you started, think about the following:
* Who is my hero?
* Why do I look up to and admire them?
* What character qualities, ideals, beliefs, etc. does this person have that stand out to me?
* What things about this person have I tried to emulate or put into practice in my own life?
* How has this person touched my life?
The term, "hero," can be interpreted many different ways. For some, it's a person that performs a heroic act (ie: saving someone from a burning building, etc.). You may not have a personal "hero," but rather, someone you admire. If you would rather scrapbook about the person you admire, that's completely acceptable.
