Confused Memories of Childhood:

I honor you, Hero, for you do not play to the crowd.
You play to your own soul.
An audience of one fills the house with its appreciation and applause.
Others follow you, and may attempt to emulate you,
but that is not why you are a hero.
Fame may smile upon you, or it may not.
The world may cheer your name, or you may be the unknown warrior
who rescued comrades in battle,
or taught a young girl how to shed tears of joy.
Whatever you did, you did not do for fame.
If you had, you would not be a Hero.
You are a Hero for your bold courageous inspired action.

remember what the flight attendant says,
"Put your own oxygen mask on first."

if you have not taken care of your own needs first -

your family, your friends, and your community
is the example you set, leading a great life that inspires
those around you to emulate your being.
