<p><strong>Heroes.</strong></p>
<p>Are they born - or made? They touch our hearts, fill us with admiration, and make us reconsider our world view. As we look at the plethora of superhero movies these days and you can see how much our society values and loves its heroes.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p><em>-Just what makes certain people take heroic actions in the face of great danger?</em></p>
<p><br></p>
<p>According to the <a href="https://www.heroicimagination.org/" target="_blank"><strong>Heroic Imagination Projec</strong>t</a> (HIP), a non-profit organization that focuses on teaching people to become heroes in their everyday lives, heroism involves a behavior or action on behalf of another person or for a moral cause.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>While many of us cower to the challenge of fear, heroes, those in the truest sense - rise to serve others. Beyond our conceptualization of superpowers, exceptional talent and true ability -lies something other. Genuine courage in the compassionate discernment of a loving heart. A love that sacrifices all - so that others may themselves rise again, to see another day.</p>
<p>We set aside the coming weekend to honor and thank our veterans, let us be mindful that we should do this every day of the year and not just this one. As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter the words; but to live by them .</p>
<p>In honor of those whose sacrifices have been many, we take this week to pause … and hold reverence.</p>
<p>As you enjoy the love and leisure of family friends and acquaintances this weekend. May we fondly remember those who gave it all, so that we may continue to see the coming light of a new day.</p>
<p>To our active duty friends, service people and veterans. To all who served, sacrificed and especially to those who gave their lives — their all. A most sincere</p>
