Hero

We don’t know what it means anymore.

Maybe we never did but we’ll give it our best shot

& therein lies your answer.

It’s being able to make those split-second calls

without a moment’s hesitation.

 

It’s walking into a shelter & not leaving until every last one of those lovable scamps has found a caring home. It’s finding the girl with the broken smile alone in the corner of the gym & asking her if you may have this dance. It’s never ceasing your efforts to improve yourself every waking hour of your existence.

& at the end of the day, that’s all anyone can ever ask of you.
