Heroes Can Be Dangerous

Danny: 00:00:00

You're listening to The Little Pod of Inspiration, a collection of stories and poems about love,

redemption and change.

Danny: 00:00:07

Inspiration is all around us.

Danny: 00:00:17

All we have to do is look.

Danny: 00:00:17

In times of need, we often look for heroes to guide us through, or to make sense of what we're doing.

Danny: 00:00:23

Yet heroes come in many shapes and guises. False heroes offer little except hope that isn't there.

Danny: 00:00:29

We know deep inside that these heroes are false, and yet we still follow them in the

Danny: 00:00:33

vain hope that maybe it's us that's wrong.

Danny: 00:00:36

It isn't, and you don't need false heroes to guide you. True heroes are all around you.

Danny: 00:00:41

They're in the eyes of the children you bear as they make their way from innocence to adulthood.

Danny: 00:00:46

They're in the parents who raised you to be who you are today.

Danny: 00:00:49

They're in the mirror looking back at you every day. That job you hold down to feed your family.

Danny: 00:00:54

The luxuries you give up to keep a roof over the heads of your loved ones.

Danny: 00:00:57

Sacrifices you make to put a smile on the faces of those you cherish. You're being

Danny: 00:01:02

a hero every day of your life. Realise that and forget the false heroes. No one makes

Danny: 00:01:08

a difference like you do.
