hercules.


its said that children dream of magical heroes, much like hercules. or superman. the avengers. or power rangers. they place all their faith in these mythical strangers. strangers who fight all the "bad", and restore all the "good", as if the heroes themselves, are never misunderstood. as if superman, never lost a single fight, and the red power-ranger, never tossed and turned at night. as if hercules, never wished he wasn't as strong, as if the avengers, always got along. what children don't realize, when reading these books, and watching these shows, is that everyone has problems, even the bravest heroes.
