Happy Memorial Day.
Today in America, we take a moment to honor and remember the brave individuals who made the greatest sacrifice—not just for their families and friends, but for an entire nation. These are people who showed extraordinary courage and selflessness. Their strength came not just from training or duty, but from a mindset rooted in purpose, confidence, and heart.
They believed in something bigger than themselves—and they acted on it.
When I think about these heroes, I can’t help but compare them to superheroes. Not the ones with capes, laser eyes, or the ability to fly (though, let’s be honest, that would be cool). I’m talking about real superheroes—the ones defined not by their powers, but by their principles. The ones who embody courage, determination, and a relentless drive to do what’s right, even when it’s hard.
Truth is, you don’t need super speed or mutant healing to be a hero. Sometimes, it’s just about showing up. Fighting for what you believe in. Standing up for someone else. Pushing through your own pain so someone else can find peace.
And in that sense, maybe we all have a little superhero in us.
Some people seem to tap into that inner power more easily than others. But I believe that if we quiet the noise, focus, and truly try, we can all access it. That quiet strength. That spark of resilience. That ability to keep moving forward even when life feels like it’s working overtime to knock us down.
Even Jesus said we have the power to move mountains and walk on water—we just need to believe.
Now, I get it. Believing isn’t always easy. Life has a funny way of piling on the doubts, the fears, the setbacks… and sometimes, a mountain of stress, emails, and unpaid bills too. I’ve been there. We all have.
But here’s the thing: belief doesn’t have to be loud. It can be a whisper. A small choice. A moment of courage. And sometimes, when our own belief wavers, we can help someone else find theirs. Or let someone help us find ours.
So today, as we honor the heroes who gave everything, let’s also honor the everyday bravery in ourselves and others. Let’s remind ourselves—and each other—that even in a world full of chaos, we still have the power to choose courage, kindness, and hope.
Because maybe being a hero isn’t about saving the world. Maybe it’s just about showing up with heart.
