Living Heroes

Heroism dwells not in mind but acts; Show me your hero of resolve and will, Not yield by tragedy or a great name; But an honest worker that shoves courage. Don’t be rash telling me your ill motives. Hero is neither money, guns nor wits; A hero can heal an unhappy land. He creates, defends, and sustains morals; Heroism is produced by good soul. A hero is an ordinary man. He rebels against those repulsive souls; Doubts and weakness may consume his desire, But perseverance falters not his goal. Arising from defeat, he scours triumph; We are heroes of our life story. by Mark "Makmak" Enem
