My father. He did some things that I have a hard time forgiving him for but, overall, he was a good man. May Dad Rest in Peace.

Marcus Aurelius. He was a Roman emperor who was ethical and made the effort to walk his talk. He owned his responsibility to his people, he was open to criticism, he practiced humility and good boundaries, he always worked to improve himself.

Aileen Wuornos is an interesting choice, care to elaborate?

 

[Xena87]

						Aileen Wuornos is an interesting choice, care to elaborate? Yes, Aileen Wuornos and I have had a very similar upbringing and life. I obviously have never murdered people as of yet lol. I understand Aileen! We would definitely have been friends!

 

[Sensei]

George Orwell. He really thought outside the box and never hesitated to go against the flow. Everything by Orwell I've read is interesting and insightful.

 

[ctbUniquectb]

My an hero is Mitchell Henderson

 

[Quinlor]

Richey Edwards and Adrian Borland

 

[Morphinekiss]

My mother
Vincent Van Gogh
Leonard Cohen

the last two aren't heroes per say, but if I could meet someone in another universe and have a drink with them, it would be those two.

 

[TheSoulless]

Andrew Latimer. He has made a lot of my favorite music, and is a multi-instrumentalist like me.

There are some cool people in the world, but I can't completely respect anyone who has children.

 

[Mud.]

My mother. My best friend and the coolest, kindest, most honest person I've ever met.
She died last year. I miss her so much.

 

[mukluk0713]

Freddie Mercury (or Farrokh Bulsara, I suppose) is one for me. Such an introvert and private person but became someone totally different for the stage. Fed off of the crowd's energy, had such an amazing voice. I still love watching him performing Barcelona with Montserrat Caballe.

I, along with so many others, have such a love for this man as well

Energy never dies and her love for you will endure in the unseen dimensions. Much love

Mikhail Bulgakov
Viktor Tsoi
Nikola Tesla

I recall when Freddie was on BBC radio news announcing to the world he was ill, I was taking a bath at the time...........not long after he passed...........always admired his work, not a big fan or anything, but he sure gave the world so much in his music and performing.

The illness which took so many lives. I often think about Forrest Gump, he loved her all his life but was too late...

 

[avoid_slow_death]

This is gonna sound cliche, but the biggest one would definitely be my mom. She was the kind of woman who always put others before herself. She was so loving and kind hearted, I literally heard people say she inspired them to be better people. Unfortunately she passed away almost 6 years ago. I was the last person to be with her before she went and I miss her every single day. But, she still inspires me to try and help others whenever I can. Rest in peace mom. You will always be remembered by all the lives you touched.

Not a cliche at all. My beloved mum is one of my heroes, she sadly passed in 2012 and miss her greatly. Sounds like yours and mine lived by the same ethos of always putting others first and doing all they could...........beautiful ......................I am alone now as lost my other hero my dad before Christmas, he was the only other person who ever truly cared and loved me............dont know how to keep going now...............have severe health problems and existing is bad enough but when you have noone at all, cant even put it into words.
