hero.

life teases you into believing that it creates chances. in truth, it robs you of them. leaves you penniless and stranded. and it's hardly ever sympathetic.

but you just need to continue fighing. for as the saying goes:-

"he who lives to fight today, will live to fight another day."

and that's how heroes come about. they are those who don't give up. ralph waldo emerson defined a hero as (someone who):

"a hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer."

perhaps few people have a hero. but most people have an idol. and i reckon that's good enough. as long as you respect the person for the right reasons..
