You're Someone's Hero

Someone in this world needs you.

Enjoyed a day at the Wisconsin State Fair over the weekend.

Save for the pandemic, our family has gone together every year since our first grandchild was born. This year all three grandkids were with us.

My grandson always wants to hang with me the entire time, which I love. It reminds me of this from designer Erin Loechner…

"You are someone’s hero. Remember this. Remember it when you are doubting yourself when you are ready to stop trying, when you are this close to giving up on your dreams and yourself.

There is someone in this world who adores you.

There is someone who looks with wonder upon everything you do. There is someone who models their life after you.

Amazing, beautiful, courageous you.

And when you’re ready to walk away and toss in the towel, think about what you’d want your own hero to do and let that dictate your choices.

You’ve got this. You’re a Hero."

It’s a good reminder for me. I've got this, I'm the hero.

There’s someone out there looking to you.

Be the hero.
