- Netadmin (Network systems integrator), Computer Science and ICT's high school teacher, evolutionary art "painter" and 3D-artist wanna-be, just for fun. I can't take myself too seriously. All my artwork in the "Pattern Recognition" blog is produced using IGA's (interactive genetic algorithms), they haven't image filters or post-processing applied. Pure looking Evolutionary Art.

Photos of heroes of the World Trade Center attack hang in every New York City fire department. Eight years later, no one looks at them anymore. Time passes and we move on, and regardless of what we've done, we're only as good as we are in the present moment.
You may find, like fame, a heroic act at best, leaves you empty--or at least wanting to do MORE heroic acts. In other words, the wanting to be heroic may be more about wanting to feel something which would be impossible to sustain.
The danger is that you hold on to your good deed like a drug, as if it made you better, made you more lovable, or somehow justified your existence. But because time passes and new heroes replace the old, you're left with the emptiness you first felt which created your desire. In addition, you now also have your disillusionment, because what you thought would be achieved by being a hero, ultimately was not.
Don't think for a minute I believe what I'm saying has any value--all I did was read your simple line, make up a story, and comment on what came out of my own imagination. ;)
Thanks for your imagination then.
i want it too...
