Blog #2 We make our own Hero story

 Heroes don't always come perfectly like how it is perceived by people. Just like Hercules who might choose the virtuous path over the easier one but based on the mythology he was given life because of the cheating of Zeus. He proved himself through many things. Hunting a Lion for 50 days and even winning a war through the blessing of Athena. A hero's journey would always come with obstacles from questioning his virtuous to take the easy path or even physical challenges where it might feel that a thing is much stronger than them and that is where we can relate as human beings. 

 We are not perfect as well. Some things make us feel weak, in different aspects of our lives. This situation makes us question ourselves and our capabilities. Even referring back to what we think defines us. Just like Hercules where he is brought to the world through a "mistake" made by Zeus but at the end of the day that doesn't define his worth as a demi-god or let's just say it doesn't define who he is. We should perceive life as a path forward that allows us to continue and prove to ourselves that we are more than what we think we are. We should not let our past define our worth and what we can still do. Hercules didn't stop until he proved himself, or let's just say until he is contented to where he is where he had a wife and three kids. He created himself and what people should see him as. It is when we stop that makes us think we failed to be the heroes of our lives that we forget that stopping, taking a deep breath, and clearing our minds is what we need to have a better look on what is the next step we should make in life.
