A hero opens doors for the eyes of mere men to see things inside the closed doors and ponder, learn lessons and think of different actions! A hero faces challenges in an overcoming manner with a certain charisma that surpasses the understanding of mere men! To be a hero, one needs a certain gut! It is not as if heroes don’t hit the rock bottom, never! Heroes meet big problems, but big problems and challenges are what defines heroism, and even if heroes are unable to arrest and cripple all the challenges they meet, they must never be discredited for their awesome ingenuity that brought awe, became a yardstick, natured minds, provoked thoughts and caused the envy of mere men to shake, gave people reasons to reason, showed people the essence of life, cleared the path for people to take their journey, and epitomized true heroism! Heroes die after they have blazed the trail! Heroes retire after they have done something unique and unthinkable! Heroes are heroes, regardless of their slips or the big or small things they could never do as heroes, for most times heroes die as heroes whilst challenging the unthinkable challenges! Even if all people don’t see and acknowledge the heroism of a hero, heroes see, feel and understand what it really takes to be a hero! A hero is a hero! Don’t ever undermine heroism!","author":"Ernest Agyemang Yeboah","tags":["courageous-leadership","founders","great-men","greatness","heroes","heroism","leadership","pioneers"],"id":22065,"author_id":"Ernest+Agyemang+Yeboah"},{"text":"Believe in God.Believe in Jesus Christ.Believe in the Scriptures.","author":"Lailah Gifty Akita","tags":["belief","belief","believe","believe-and-achieve","believe-in-fate","believe-in-god","believe-in-jesus","believe-in-life","believe-in-love","believe-in-others","believe-in-yourself","believe-jesus-christ","believe","believed","believer","believes","dream","dream-big","dreamers","dreamers-versus-reasoners","dreaming","dreams","dreams-inspirational","gospel","gospel-truth","great","great-expectations","great-faith","great-favour","great-men","great-women","greater-glory","greatness","power-of-thoughts","power-of-words","powerful","powerful-words","scripture","scriptures"],"id":30332,"author_id":"Lailah+Gifty+Akita"},{"text":"...You are a little boy.
