Who are your heroes?

My heart leapt. 
I, for one, found the tale of Firefly to be full of apt metaphors, and human grace. 
Shame about the 'business side' of it though... sort of like ATS.

I'm sorry for drifting off-topic there...

Hero status is very often reserved for an 'event' in reporting... for biography in documentation, but in the end it seems to always be abused for virtue signaling.

Every hero I can think of was a flawed human being.  Some deeply so. 
Those few who surface as saint-like are often shrouded, as if those elevating them had something to hide. 

It's kind of sad, that we often fail to recognize that a hero is not a person by themselves... in some vacuum from the surrounding world. 
Sad that to be a proper hero one must be 'special' or 'recognized.' 

I have found that heroes are mostly anonymous.  It's part and parcel of true heroics.
