Nathaniel Hawthorne once said that easy reading is damn hard writing.

I believe that each of us comes from the Creator trailing wisps of glory. So at this wonderful, young age of 65, I don't know yet what the Lord has for me to do. I try to live up to the energy and to the calling, but I wouldn't dare say I have even scratched the surface yet.

I think a hero is any person really intent on making this a better place for all people.
