Be the person you needed then.


When you where five and you imagined a hero what did they look like?

Were they tall and mysterious?

Did they have tattoos? Did they speak there mind and and preach morality to others too?

Did they have colorful hair and have sparkling eyes like the sun?

Did they stand up for justice and not care about what others thought of them?

Be the hero you needed then.

Be someones hero and you might save the day.

Save someone from the bad guy.

This dose not mean show up in a cape. 

It could be as small as a hug and a smile.

Be the person you needed then.

Be a hero.
