It may be the profession that I am going into that makes me hyperaware to recognize the unsung heroes in the world. There are so many people in this world who go unnoticed because they are reacting and responding to a need not because they want the recognition, but because it is in their innermost being to do something for the sake of humanity without publicity. Not every hero wears a uniform or cape. We may not always love the current societal or political climate, but at the end of the day, this is our world and our home. There have been many times that our downfall has stemmed from the bystander effect. How many times have we been somewhere, seen something that we could have helped with, but then thought that someone else saw it too and will help? We have all been there. Thoughts run through our heads that we should not get involved or it is not our place or that someone else will do it better than we could. Every day there is a chance to be a hero. Some have jobs that put them in situations that make it easier to contribute some help and happiness to people, while others have to put a little more effort into it, but no matter the circumstance, be a helper. Helpers are the people who take extra care when working with a child who may rely on compassionate attention at school. Helpers are the people who see their community as a place to welcome those who need a safe place to call home. Helpers are people who look beyond the flaws of the world and try to make it a better place for us all to live. Helpers are people who are problem solvers and can bring valuable resources to build solutions. Helpers are heroes. Stay curious, Kayla ©Inquisitive Perspectives 2019
