Ah yes, the hero word. It ranks up there as one of the most overly used words in our society. Baseball players, movie stars, firefighters, veterans, the guy who helps out at a crash scene, someone who bails you out jail. Pretty broad spectrum really, but what justifies this tag? It means so many different things to so many different people. I think its high time we analyze it from the fastlane perspective. We have some very intelligent and perceptive people on here. I value your opinions.
For me, its someone who doesn't have to run into burning buildings. A person who lives every day to the fullest potential they can. They give far more then they receive, and very much prefer it that way. They take adversity and work through it. Instead of complaining, they look for solutions. Its that person we all look up to, strive to be like, or use as an example to help guide our own lives. The kicker is, they don't consider themselves heros. They just feel they did what they had too.
What is a hero to you? Be as general or specific as you like.
