The Unsung Hero

08 Jun 2020

Your most heroic acts are those of which you may not even be aware.

Like the time you could have gotten even with the guy in the next cubicle, and nobody would have known. And you really wanted to. But you didn’t, just because it’s not right.

You may not have been impressed—you may even have been disappointed with yourself. But the angels burst into song, as all your world rose up a notch. It may have been the most elevating act of a lifetime.

Heroic acts are not heroic if they’re second nature. It’s when you break out of your nature that you enter the realm of the divine.
