Heroes are people that have aehieved something that we admire. It could be a character in a book or a movie. Everybody loves a hero. People often have their own personal heroes that represent the values to which they aspire.
Many select their hero from the public domain. The hero may be an actor, a musician, a politician or a celebrity. Sometimes it is a person that has committed a heroic act, showing great courage in the face of danger. We admire what they stand for.
But back at home in their private(and sometimes not so private)life, heroes are normal people. Normal people are subject to temptation and are faced with the stresses of everyday life. Few people are perfect, and when the spotlight falls upon their private lives the result is often disappointing.
A young golfer captured the imagination of the world. His achievements were immense, and he became a hero to many young golfers and others. He had a beautiful wife and young children and seemed like a role model for many. Suddenly, news emerged about countless affairs and infidelity. No longer the hero, the young golfer is in disgrace.
Success brings about a whole new range of temptations. Our hero was human and didn’t know how to resist. Does this negate everything that he had achieved? Does it mean that his character is now bad?
There must be many discarded heroes in the world—politicians and activists of high integrity that have fallen prey to the temptation of corruption, sports heroes that have used steroids, and celebrities that have become involved in drug and alcohol abuse and infidelity.
These are common mistakes or errors of judgment that we are all subject to. Even when we stray away from the straight and narrow we may return.
So we are disappointed by our hero who behaved badly. Is it right to discard this hero and find another?
Being human means making mistakes. There are none that are perfect and do only good. Each of us has our faults and imperfections. We will all be disappointed by our heroes from time to time. Sometimes the damage is too great to allow for forgiveness and it is time to find a new hero.
But doing something wrong does not take away the achievements that have been achieved. It does not negate the courage or bravery that was required to become a hero. Recognize your hero for what he or she has achieved and remember that no-one is perfect.
From the first two paragraphs, we learn that______.
