People call me a hero and my responce is no, no I’m not.  I don’t argue with them, it’s their beliefs not mine.  The reason why I don’t like to be called a hero is the pedistal effect.  By that I mean you get put up on a pedistal and you are destined to fall off of it because you fail to fulfill their expectations of you.  All I’m trying to do is stay alive.  I’m not perfect by any means.  I’ve hurt people very close to me with things I’ve done and said, how is that a hero?  Just my thoughts as I sit here trying to deal with things.
