S U P E R M A N
by Michelle Nelson for Randy Humphries
No Fortress of Solitude can protect anyone
From an enemy like this;
Insidious, sneaky, shifty and silent.
Uglier than Lex Luthor.
No secret
identity can hide you.
No phone
booth to change you.
No damsel in distress to take your mind off the world's
problems.
The definition of a hero
Is not measured by the size of his shield
Or the color of his cape.
A true hero is one
who meets a battle like this head on....
Faster than
a speeding bullet,
More
powerful than a locomotive--
Surrounded by loved ones
From which he gathers his strength.
It's not about winning, or fairness --
But showing the world that good guys can still win.
That the cure can poison your body but it doesn't have to
poison your mind.
That a positive attitude and a sense of humor are the best superpowers.
That truth, justice, and the American way still prevails.
Values matter. Friends
matter.
Toes in the sand matter.
Chocolate matters.
Daughters dancing, boys sporting and acting and just being boys....matters.
Making memories matters.
Heavenly Father and prayers and faith matter.
Being married to Wonder Woman not only matters, but means more than this world.
(and you
don't need the Lasso of Truth to know THAT)
Because Families Matter.....Forever.
Sometimes it takes an insurmountable challenge
Given to
ordinary people
(like
leaping tall buildings with a single bound)
To cause extraordinary things to come to pass.
And not just for them,
but for those they have taught or inspired or loved....
Some people have to watch their heroes on TV or in comic
books;
But Superman is a personal friend of mine.
And there isn't enough Kryptonite on the planet to make me
forget that.
You are a SUPER MAN......
You are our hero.
