A Hero In My Eyes...

Why this man is my hero...(I LOVELES THIS PICTURE! :D)

When Charlotte asked us to pick a public hero to write about my instant reaction was 'ZOMJ! There's too many T^T ' (Yes...I am so very indecisive...) But in the end, though I admire many, (all of which are cartoons...) I ended up picking this man, Jushiro Ukitake, the captain of the 13th court guard squad of the soul society.

Although he is not real he is a hero in my little freshman eyes because of his strength, kindness, and wisdom. You see, Ukitake~Taichou (quick lesson: Taichou=captain in japanese) has the disease know as TB or Tuberculosis which keeps him bedridden most of the time but despite all of this he still finds the will to be happy and spread that happiness to others. An example would be his fetish of handing out snacks (especially candy) to anyone he comes across! :3

Not only is he my hero for this reason but also because of what he said, "As long as we engage ourselves in battle, we must know the difference between the two. A fight to protect innocent life and a fight to preserve one's honor." This quote really struck me because it made me think about the choices I have made in the past. When I see someone getting hurt my immediate reaction is to defend. I never thought about someones honor and how I might have destroyed it with my desire to shield them from harm. I understand now; how to distinguish between the two and I thank him for it.

This man is still teaching me so much and even though it might be a little strange that an anime/manga character has taught me so much I don't care! :) To me all that matters is he has influenced me for the better and that maybe, just maybe I can become a better person because of him.

ICHIRUKI FOREVER! ^//////^

I just wanted to post this because I was really proud...I think it turned out okay :D

ENJOY!

Live a Life Less Ordinary Live A Life Extradorinday with Me! :D

Hey there everyone! :D

I just wanted to post something because it's been awhile ^___^ Anyway I've been thinking a lot about something...(wow) >_<

Actually about the song "How to Save a Life" by the Fray...it's a beautiful song...

Think about it...for me I think of someone important to me...someone I wish I could see at least one more time. I'm not trying to sound self pitying or anything because I know there are others in much more pain than I and who have lost more...but I can't help the sad feeling I get in my heart...that longing to see that face...

"Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend, somewhere along in the bitterness and if I'd stayed up with you all night then I'd know how to save a life..."

I often wonder...if I really could have done something...anything to stop her...

How To Save A Life
Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came

CHORUS:
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you

CHORUS:
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

CHORUS:
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

CHORUS:
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life
How to save a life

CHORUS:
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

CHORUS:
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life
