Hero

I remember a story that I had read from somewhere, regarding a little girl who told her parent that she would prefer to be the person giving applause and claps for hero, instead of becoming a hero herself. The story touched me in a point.

I have been thinking sometime, who and what I actually hope and wish to be. I always try very hard to become a hero and most of the time, it doesn't turn out to be what I have expected and there are time, it turns out to be hilarious and epic fail. I have been asking myself

"Do I really want to be a hero"

Or was it because everyone around me think that being a hero is the only right thing to do in the world. And I was trying too hard for it, to become a hero for other people.

I admire the little girl, simply because she was able to see things in another side of view. A hero is created out from applauses and praises by people. Without those, they are nobody to anyone. When they are nobody, they will be trying hard to be "somebody" just like everyone did.

Life is our own path. It is fine to choose our own path and our own pace to walk it till the end. You make the decision to become "somebody" or "nobody", and neither is wrong. Just got to admit that too many people trying to be a hero and it has more than enough.
