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 and every time an individual rises in this world there are 100 wolves making an attempt to bring her down. They come out in packs with their piercing sharpened teeth looking for ways to destroy anything they can sink into... and often, they really are pretty successful in doing it. It's terrible what happens to people in this day and age 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 suspect this is the way that it has always been? Maybe it'll always be this way.
But we need a new breed of hero.
We need a lion who does not concern itself with the opinions of those sheep who have 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 chasm and who will consistently take a stand for what they have a belief in and what they love.
Wouldn't that give the people something to root for? I think as a society we are obsessed with perfect figures - if that be a body or a character. We idealize this concept of perfection and yet there truly is no such thing. What we truly need is someone who admits imperfection and celebrates it. And, in spite of having that deep sense of being flawed, endeavours to grow every day and bring light into the planet.
We really need someone who will rise confidently above all the nonsense and take a stand for something bigger than merely cash, sex, drugs, and so on. We need an ordinary man or woman - ready to be extraordinary in faith, love, and compassion.
