"A lion doesn't concern itself with the opinion of sheep." Game Of Thrones, George R.R. Martin
We live in a pretty cruel world at times. While it does have its nurturing moments, we can't deny that things can be pretty rough around the edges.
But it isn't our world that is as vicious as the people who walk upon it. Every single time someone tries to rise there are thousands working against them to see that they fall. These individuals come out in hoards with the intent to sink their teeth into "the lights" back and tear him or her to shreds.
Our society is built upon the spreading of gossip and the tearing apart of hearts. There is a massive audience of people who are looking to watch others fail instead of succeed. Further, there's a large group of people who will go out of their way to specifically try to bring people down who are rising to the top. They are the wolves and they love to come out and hunt.
But it's time for a new generation of people who are willing to take a stand for others.
The world needs a group of lions who are so deeply rooted in their principles and values that no matter the opposing force they cannot be taken down. We don't need people who are doormats, but rather individuals who are willing to fight for what they believe in. We need people who are willing to stand for an idea beyond themselves and not compromise on those beliefs.
When the lions rise from the darkness, we will have a great light in this world.
Why?
Because as a society we have lost our ability to believe in anything. It's not really our fault that every single time someone comes up in the world they fall for one reason or another. But if we have someone who understands that they aren't perfect and who doesn't attempt to be, couldn't that change the game?
This won't all come easy. In fact, it's going to be one massive responsibility for those who decide to take on the challenge. But because we have these lions who know great victories and the sting of defeat, we have people who are willing to fight for what they believe in.
It's time there are people who take a stand for something greater than themselves.
It's time for extraordinary men and women to rise.
Calling all new heroes.
