spIritualHERO

"I" am the...
unsung, unrecognized, unknown hero
of my own small proud and self-centered world.
Why is it that there is never enough people
who know and appreciate me,
for all I'm worth?

This is so sad -
sadly egoistic!

Buddhas' and Bodhisattvas' names
are sung, recognized, known by billions of sentient beings.
They are famous, worshiped in fact.
And they did not even seek this kind of fame in the first place.
No ego,
No swelling pride.
They are the real heroes -
spiritual heroes who inspire us to be heroes like them.
