Today’s first quote will be by Tom Brokaw saying “Heroes are people who rise to the occasion and slip quietly away” Pg. 42 (The Art of Being Human)
My feelings about this quote is quite conflicting at the moment. My feelings towards heroes might be different than many others. There shouldn’t be a want for “fame and fortune” as a reward for doing something good in life. Being good and doing good things should come from within, not for an external purpose. Heroes aren’t selfish, inconsiderate or demanding. They genuinely want to help you and in your best interest.
“Don’t go backwards; you have already been there” – Ray Charles
I am actually a big fan of Ray Charles so I am not surprised he said this. I love this quote so much, because I always try not to look back of life. Being positive and stay positive is very hard. Human nature is the ability of memories and looking back is natural. But you know what is behind you, that is why the future is always a mystery. The act of being able to move on and better things to come will always be a goal in human nature.
