I am Captain Mundane . I don't think they'll be making the movie anytime soon. 😂Ah but maybe they will. Remember during the COVID epidemic, when people would stand outside hospitals and applaud the nurses and doctors within? That was an act of heroism.
Anyway maybe they will make a movie about the heroism in ordinary life, the wives-slash-fulltime-carers who look after husbands with Alzheimer’s, the good neighbours who make a pan of soup for you, the volunteers who look after the sports society for the neighbourhood kids.
I hope so. I'd gladly watch such a movie. 👍
“As Adam wandered about the Garden of Eden he noticed two birds up in the tree. They were snuggled up together, billing and cooing. Adam called to the Lord, "What are the two birds doing in the trees?" The Lord said, "They are making love, Adam."
A little while later he wandered into the fields and saw a bull and cow going at it. He called to the Lord, "Lord, what is going on with that bull and cow?"
And the Lord said, "They are making love, Adam."
And Adam said, "How come I don't have anyone to make love with?"
So the Lord said, "We will change that. When you awake tomorrow morning things will be different."
So Adam lay down beneath the olive tree and fell asleep. When he awoke, there was Eve next to him. Adam jumped up, grabbed her hand, and said, "Come with me. Let's go into the bushes." And so they went. But a few moments later Adam stumbled out, looking very dejected, and called to the Lord, "Lord, what is a headache?"”

Ah, heroes are not so much the valiant the warrior standing alone against the horde. Rather, the hero is performing the mundane tasks of daily life. The greatest heroes give their children or their elderly parent a bath. a hero helps a friend or neighbor or stranger with a needed task or a simple helping hand.
A hero is one who does simple things, as simple as a smile, making another's day or evening just a little brighter.
We may not notice that are surrounded by heroes and that we ourselves may be the very heroes - without capes, titles or fanfare.
Be a hero - just smile, care, say "hello" and "thank you".
There is nothing special about being a hero. But a hero is special to someone.Hello Heroes!
}Peace to all.

If you ask me....'Trying' has a lot to answer for....always trying to poke its nose in where it isn't wanted or needed...
Well done! Keep it up.
Shorter meditations more often can be very beneficial.
