If your life feels as though there’s an absence of heroes, it’s because the role of the hero was meant for you.
Once you reach a certain point of capability in your life in any area of skill, you are supposed to turn your abilities, capabilities, and powers towards helping others, towards energizing your abilities with compassion.
You’re supposed to step up, transcend your limitations and the boundaries of an ordinary life to become more, to brighten your world a little more.
Christopher Penn, on Where Have Your Heroes Gone?

We need more heroes. You need more heroes.
The hero is you.
Get your tights!
