hero

Did you watch the CNN special last night “heroes”??

Honey let me tell you it was one of the better things I’ve seen in tv
Honoring every day people who have made their lives heroic
The man from Ecuador who has made it his mission to save the natural resources of his country from oil pollution
The nun in Africa who has taken in and saved women from rape camps
the baggage handler in Ireland who decided to stop terrorists by kicking the crap out of them

it was touching and wonderful
and I don’t care how commercial
it was

I liked it

And afterwards I took a long look inside
And decided that
Well quite honestly the last time I felt like a hero
Was in sept of 2001 down at ground zero
And while I hope to never see or feel the things that I saw and felt in those horrible days
I do want to feel like a hero again
So I’ve decided to open myself up to heroic possibilities
And see where the universe blows me

How bout you
How can you be a hero today
How can we all
Any suggestions
Lay em on me
