Greetings Everyone!

Welcome to my "Wiki of Attribution for my Heroine"!

<img600*3:http://elftown.eu/stuff/IvyLeagueDivider500ByArtsie_ladie.png>

What is a hero/heroine?

True heroes/heroines are those that are exemplary people of character and are outstanding individuals
that have gone above and beyond what is or was even remotely expected of them. These such individuals deserve and have earned the respect and attribution from other people for they have exhibited and proven their integrity, their soundness of character, their good, moral compass, and when they were needed to solve or resolve a situation, they have risen to the occasion and then some, without hesitation and/or expecting any type of reward or recognition in return, and did so placing the needs of others above their own. Heroes are people with principle and convictions, which they stand by, even in the face or perhaps especially in the face of adversity, unpopularity, and/or danger.

Heroes or heroines are not "perfect" individuals. They are not exempt from making errors in judgment just like the rest of us, because they are also human just like the rest of us, but they do have an outstanding quality of character that far exceeds the norm.

Too often I hear someone say for one example, that a celebrity they like is their hero. Meanwhile, the celebrity may be a good actor, actress, sports player, etc., but true heroism is about so, so much more than just being good at what someone does. Just because a person does his/her acting well of which they get handsomely paid to do as well, their "good acting" alone does not warrant the title of "hero" or "heroine".

Not to zero in on Michael Jackson to diminish his accomplishments during his life, because in my opinion, Michael was a very talented and gifted person and he is among my favourites, but I do not see him as being a hero. Perhaps he has done acts that were above and beyond the call of duty, but if so, I am not aware.

Prime examples of heroism are those that risk their own lives to save the lives of countless others, such as those that did so in the 9-11 disastrous attack. These individuals placed the welfare and safety of others way above their own and looked death squarely in the face without faltering or wavering from their intended mission of saving the lives of as many as they possibly could. Those people that chose to have the plane go down in a Pennsylvania field, instead of allowing it to hit the White House, what an incredibly, incredibly BRAVE act! THIS IS HEROISM!

Our leaders and other important, influential people of the world today are just this, but their position of importance in society does not automatically make them heroes or heroines in my eyes. The Pope, as influential and prestigious as he may be to many, I do not consider him a hero. Perhaps he has performed acts of heroism I do not know of, too, but as far as him being the Pope, this in and of itself does not merit the title of "hero".

There are many presidents, prime ministers, dignitaries, kings, queens, rulers from around the world, but still, these people of position and so-called importance do not qualify any of them to be classified as heroes based on their prestigious position alone. Obama is our current American president, nothing more, nothing less, and definitely not whom I would consider to be rightfully classified as a hero. He may at some point in the future earn the title, but then, there are many around the world that "may" earn the title of hero even without such a dignified position. In fact, I'm sure there are many people around the world that have and do earn the title of hero, but go unrecognised simply because they are not popular or of a position of fame. This is quite sad in my opinion.

My Heroine - My Mother!

With the previous said, my personal heroine is my mother, hands down, for she was a person that gave and did for others her entire life and did so, making do with little for herself, always thinking of others that needed something more than she.

To be continued...
