Yesterday was all about Herb, a personality from my youth. A positive role model for me although me was just living life. I’m sure that he didn’t get up every morning and said how am I going to be the best positive role model today. Where is this going? I just wanted to expand slightly on the topic.

Most people that we learn from are just people, they live their lives. They’re not perfect but they are good. They make a difference because of their goodness, steadiness, dedication, stuff like that. Their weren’t any guys in my neighborhood that were brain surgeons, astronauts, super athletes, rock stars. Really don’t know how that works that high flying, super heated stuff.

So much of life is just sort of day by day. We have to keep that in mind when we see all the “lives of the rich and famous” that we are fed by media. Yea, those few people are out there but are they the ones that we are going to learn from? Are they the ones that are going to influence our kids? There are so many good folks that are around us that we can talk to and touch and are the metronomes of real life.

Hopefully a few times in their lives they get to do a few things that are transcendent, that are bigger than life. Maybe we get to walk the Camino, hey, something like that. Just a few thoughts to complete yesterday’s post. I’m off to my day, metronome loves, Felipe.
