Sometimes the act
of taking on the insurmountable
leaves more of an impression
than the actual surmounting.
Selflessly diving in.
Having faith in destiny.
These are the qualities of legend.
NOT beating the odds,
overcoming obstacles,
or defeating demons.
Our heroes don’t always win.
But neither do they run.
That’s what makes them heroes.
