I don’t believe in heroes. I don’t believe in the whole idealogy that we should strive to be like someone else. With depression being this out of control epidemic we need to stop focusing on our negatives and accentuate our positives. I think the whole “I want to be the next Chuck Norris†or “I want to be just like Chuck Liddell†undermines people’s self-esteem; especially if they fall short of that goal. I think people need to set themselves up as their own heroes and do a little something everyday to reach that goal. It’s okay to admire someone for their accomplishments but you shouldn’t want to be a carbon copy of them. People should want to be themselves and be the best dang version of themselves that they can be. They should believe in the hero inside themselves.
