Heroism Today

  People in today's world do things don't really believe in heroism. The truth is that they seldom have heroic qualities, since knight is only a fade, it's not medieval Europe, and there aren't that many monsters and demons in real world. However, because I'm always a child and believe in those magical stuff, I would like to read fantasy novels and create heroes in my heart. I especially prefer mythologies, since they seem to be more mysterious and interesting. Some of the people may heard about Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Yes, I'm going to talk about his heroic deeds. Percy Jackson is the son of Poseidon, though I prefer Athena more, since I am an Athenian. He is going to clear himself by proving he didn't steal lightening bolt. He encounters Medusa and Hades, and they accidentally have a battle; however, he survives it. He then finds out that it is Luke, Hermes' son who stole the lightening bolt. He is awarded and becomes honorable after he takes back Zeus' lightening bolt. Later on, he has a new journey. Although it's only a story, I pretty enjoy the relationship among gods and goddesses. Well, it's only a visionary example, the possibility happens in real world is almost zero.
