You Don't Pick Your Heroes, They Just Happen

UnderTheGreenLeaves

A Man Once Told Me That you Don't get to Pick your Heroes. They Just Happen.

 

In the Infinite World of Chances and Endless Impossibilities

Any Individual Can Become A Hero Regardless Of Color,Creed and Race.

 

It Just Takes That One Moment of Courage and Selfless Bravery to Become A Hero

Taking That Step to Save A Life of One And The Many.

 

It Not The Name Nor The Suit or Mask that Truly Makes The Hero

But The Deeds One Does To Keep This World A Safe And Better Place.

 

It Not The Extraordinary Powers They Possess That Make Them Memorable 

But Their Humanity and Their Sacrifices Made In Its Name.

 

Their Origins Can Be Many Things that one might Remember 

But It is the Ones They Save That Will Be Most Remembered In The Pages of History.

 

Heroes Are Not Born Out Of Pages of A Comic Book nor The Scenes of A Film

Real Heroes are Born from The Most Ordinary of Places.

 

Families 

Friends

Law Enforcement

Fire Department 

Military Members

Even You and I could Become Heroes 

 

But The Time when Any One Man or Woman Becomes A Hero Will Never Be Truly Known Until That Day When They Have the Choice to Become One

And When That Day Happens and They Step Forth and Prove Their Worth and Humanity 

You Will Indeed See the Birth of Real Live Heroes.

 

As The Man Once Told Me

You Don't Pick Your Heroes

They Just Happen.
