My Super-Man Is Dead

You were virtually indestructible.

Evel Knievel really made an impression on me when I was quite young with that sky cycle stunt. He was a real super-man to me--breaking everything and coming back for more; striving to be the best in his chosen field.

R.I.P.

I've learned that most of my heroes are horribly flawed people, and I'm okay with that. They still give me something to strive for, even if it's something comparatively LAME, such as:

being kind,
being a great bass player,
being a smart businessman,
a decent driver, a good friend,
an acceptable boyfriend (not doing so well in that role at the moment),
a good son, or even
being a great trash man.

I'm trying my best to be a decent human, and that's really all that I can be.
