Summary

As we grow older and gain life experiences, it becomes increasingly challenging to find individuals whom we idolize and view as heroes. This is because our understanding of the complexities of human nature and the flaws that exist in everyone deepens with age. However, it remains essential to have heroes, as they serve as inspiration and remind us of the potential for greatness within ourselves. Even if they are not perfect, heroes can instill hope, motivate us to strive for betterment, and provide valuable role models for the qualities we cherish.

Others come as temptations, trials, and tribulations.
