Who's the real hero around here? Who's someone we can look up to? Who can set an example of what people should act and look like?

The social pull on this Earth is amazing but we need to use this power in a better way! I recently saw a video about a boy who is VERY wise! He got made fun of because of his Fila shoes. He urged parents to teach their kids to raise their kids on values instead of materialistic things. This is the best thing any parent can do.

Image is too important now, and it's hard for it not to affect us. I like to think of myself as a person who values morals more than material things and I think I do. Every once in a while I see something and want it, when I don't need it. Everyone does it, but we shouldn't. We should only care about what we think of ourselves. EVERYONE IS BEAUTIFUL! If you think you're flawed it's because the standards of society told you so...P.S. don't listen to society!

The other thing is filtering the way we act to who we are around. We should act like ourselves no matter what! Not agree with some people just because they want them to like us. Keep your opinions and values true and someone will appreciate them!

So back to who's our role model. The truth is there are good and bad people in every neighborhood and in every profession. You can't blame one race or profession for a major problem. The solution to every problem is do something! Nothing is going to change by complaining about the situation. So the answer is you be the hero. Find the good in every situation. Raise your kids to value other things than the things they own. Find someone good in every corner of the world and appreciate them because it's hard to be good in a world so filled with hate.

Here is your faith portion. There is a God and he loves every single one of you. He is the real hero and His entire story is in the bible for us all to lead by His example. There is also a Devil. This Devil tempts us everyday to be cruel and hateful people. But through God's strength we can help people and ourselves to become better people.

Don't be discouraged by this World. Be the hero and find the good in the world. Be a person our youth can look up to and encourage other to do the same!
