‘A ‘hero’ now is largely about being bold, muscular, rich, famous, talented, or ‘fantastic’ by himself, and often for himself, whereas the classic hero is one who ‘goes the distance’, whatever that takes, and then has plenty left over for others. True heroism serves the common good, or it is not really heroism at all.’

 Richard Rohr

Justin Skeesuck comes to mind. In the heroic memoir, “I’ll Push You”, he helped his disabled best friend, Patrick Gray, complete the full 500 miles of the Camino Francés.  This was after Patrick had a dream to do the Camino but was unable to undertake the physical journey alone.  It is said, that ‘a healthy hero has strength for two’ and that was literally what was required of Justin.

What does a healthy hero mean for you?

• What qualities in them did you most admire?

• Did you see the same qualities inside yourself and what obstacles helped to reveal them to you?

• How are we letting our healthy hero energy serve the ‘common good’ upon the return home?

• What stories did you hear that illustrated that “true heroism serves the common good.”
