Heroes and Saints

It is inspirational
 to read and watch people
 heroes, stars, saints overcoming hardships and trials
 and not succumbing to the darkness.

The truth is
 there are so many, a multitude of unsung, unknowns
 awe inspiring, ordinary, everyday people and personages.
Heroes and Saints.

You have met them, know them,
 been blessed by their presence 
 lived with them
 in your everyday life.

Their stories, their lives though not publicized
 or on the daily news
 are known and seen by you
Inspirational struggles blessed.

Think about it,
you know them well those heroes and saints
 they may even be
one of you.
