A lion doesn't concern itself with the opinion of sheep. Game Of Thrones, George R.R. Martin
We reside in a pretty rough world.
Every time an individual rises in this world there are 100 people attempting to bring her down. They come out in packs with their piercing jagged teeth looking for ways to destroy anything they can sink into... and frequently, they really are pretty successful in doing it. It's terrible what happens to people these days who are attempting to do something in this world. It doesn't matter if it's positive even, the wolves will always find a way. I assume this is the way that it has always been? Maybe it'll always be this way.
But we need a new type of hero.
We need a lion who truly does not concern itself with the views of those sheep who have never stepped into and failed in the arena. That's the sort of hero we need. Not someone that was born great, but a man or woman who built themselves from the ashes in the abyss and who will constantly take a stand for what they have a belief in and what they really adore in this life.
Wouldn't that give the people something to root for? I suspect as a society we are deeply obsessed perfect figures - whether or not that be a body or a type of personlity. We idealize this concept of perfection and yet there truly isn't such a thing. What we really need is someone who really admits imperfection and celebrates it. And, despite that imperfection, endeavours to grow every day and bring light into the globe.
We really need someone who will rise up above all the rubbish and take a stand for something greater than merely wealth, sex, drugs, and so on. We need an ordinary man or woman - ready to be extraordinary in faith, love, and compassion.
