A lion doesn't concern itself with the opinion of sheep. Game Of Thrones, George R.R. Martin
We live in a pretty vicious world.
Each time somebody rises in this world there are 100 people attempting to bring her down. They come out in packs with their piercing jagged teeth looking for methods to destroy anything they can sink into... and frequently, they are pretty successful in doing it. It's horrible what happens to people these days who are attempting to do something in this world. It doesn't matter if it's positive even, the wolves will always find a way. I assume this is the way that it's always been? Maybe it'll always be this way.
But we need a new breed of hero.
We need a lion who truly does not concern itself with the viewpoints of those sheep who've never tried and failed in the arena. That's the type of hero we need. Not someone that was born great, but male or female who built themselves from the ashes in the depths and who will constantly take a stand for what they have a belief in and what they adore.
Wouldn't that give the people something to root for? I believe as a society we are obsessive about perfect figures - if that be a body or a personality. We idealize this concept of perfection and yet there truly isn't any such thing. What we truly need is someone that admits deep imperfection and celebrates it. And, despite that defect, strives to grow each day and bring light into the globe.
We truly need someone who will rise above all the rubbish and take a stand for something greater than merely money, sex, drugs, and so on. We need an ordinary man or woman - ready to be extraordinary in faith, love, and compassion.
