The past 8 weeks have found me away from my writing and my blog as we have been caring for elderly relatives. This has indeed been bittersweet. It is sad to see anyone's health decline, but we feel fortunate to live near loved ones and be able to offer support and compassion. We believe everyone is on the mend and our routines are returning to normal.
In the middle of sad news and bad news, I had one of those day when I wondered: Where is the good news? What ever happened to caped crusaders? There are a few places, in print and on the web, that report only good news and heroic acts. I for one could use more of it. So, here is one of my heroes. At first glance, he appears to be a regular 5th grader, but he is actually a caped crusader! Connor Burshears.
Want to create your own Super Hero? Check out my fellow writer Laurie Thompson. She is a fabulous writer, intelligent blogger and is out to inspire young heroes all over the place. She turned us on to The Hero Factory, created by Jim Di Bartolo. Get inspired! Go forth and make good news happen!
