I Don't Believe In "Heroes"
I hated whenever I was asked to write about my hero or asked who was my hero was in school. I never liked the idea because everyone that I looked for some admiration in: George Orwell, MLK, Joan of Arc, every president, Gandhi, Jesus (most all people in the Bible), founding Fathers, many great people, my family members: They all have their own shitty/stupid believes and/or did shitty/stupid things and/or were just regular people excluding their feat they were known for. Because their people.
The modern version of the word "hero" often seem to glorify people as moral pinnacles in spite of the fact they're regular and/or shitty people. As opposed to the Greek heroism that seems to be focused more on feats of greatness despite the morals you hold and exercise, which is probably the best way to look at people because there's no absolute morals and no people of moral perfection.
(Though I'm not sure if the Greek heros were considered immoral or selfish by their own standards at the time)
So never had heroes.
