Unsung Heroes

Unsung heroes are we not all, with great deeds but no recognition ? Dodging the bullets life throws at us, the curve balls and the wild cards. Sometimes we overcome, and at others, barely escaping .

Shattered dreams and disappointments, hope that bubbles and bursts, our lot . With no sword or cannons, we take on life with its barrage of disillusionment. Are we not valiant soldiers?

With no handbook nor instructions ,we often make poor decisions, consequences of which are overwhelming . But not conceding defeat ,we rise after each fall. Is that not commendable?

At times champions of a cause, we take a stance and hold fast . Misjudged and misunderstood, shunned and forsaken, we still fight resolutely, without surrender, for that which we hold sacred.

Sometimes born with disabilities, for no fault of ours but that of the stars, challenges we face many .Though a failing battle, we don’t yield, but fight stoically, to conquer those weakness.

Being selfless at times considered a trait of weakness, turning us into victims of betrayal. But we don’t stop being kind and generous, caring for others, sharing their trials, even if unappreciated.

Not an example or a cautionary tale, leaving no blazing trail, we quietly pass through life. Riding its storms its upheavals, with no peal of trumpets or fanfare, we endure life’s perilous journey, till the very end .

Though life is seldom kind,,we forge ahead with courage and tenacity. Often tossed into a maelstrom of hardship we hold strong. Against all odds, we fight to survive, to perpetuate life . Are we not then heroes ?
