The Epic Hero's Journey

Our Heroes
Who our heroes are can determine what in society we look for; help, idols, and inspiration, to name a few. For example, people who look up to soldiers as heroes perhaps idolize people with courage, strength, and the will to sacrifice for others, whereas people who look up to moms care more for patience and nurture in their idol figures. People who take fictional characters as their heroes- and there are plenty- may use them for any of the qualities above (usually the former).
