Superheroes

Assalamualaikum

I believe every one of us is a superhero. Deep inside, maybe it hasn't surfaced yet, but it's there. A superhero doesn't have to wear caps, or masks or uniforms. Your mom and dad are superheroes. My dad is my superhero. All my life he has never let me down T_T My brothers are my superheroes. They are there in my time of need (OK la not all the time but still), they don't know how to handle me but at least they're here and they'd never hurt me intentionally. Let's not mention our Moms. They exceed the superhero title :')

Superhero

Teachers are superheroes, too. Without them, what would become of us right now? No doctors to treat the sickly, no engineers to build magestic buildings, no architects to design complicated monuments, no bosses to boss around. For me, a teacher is not just a teacher. She doesn't just TEACH her students, she treats the wounded (heart), she tries to understand, she wants to help, she loves her students, she sacrifices time for her students. I remember my teachers during high school, I miss them so much right now (OKlah next week I'll visit SHAMS)

Doctors are superheroes.

Engineers are superheroes.

Interior designers are superheroes.

Cleaners are superheroes.

Lecturers are superheroes.

Asatizah (plural for ustaz/ustazah) are superheroes.

Well, everyone is, let's sum it up.

Even if we don't feel like one...well, you have the power to be one. As long as you're kind, and you can make people around you happy, YOU ARE A GREAT SUPERHERO! Feelings are complicated. Happy, sad, elated, heart-broken, they are hard to deal with. But! If you can make a sad person smile, then...doesn't that count as powerful? And  no ordinary human being is called powerful, unless they're superheroes, am I right?

(OH MY GOD I'M WATCHING PAPADOM 2 RIGHT NOW AND EVERY TIME I'M WATCHING PAPADOM SOMEONE SEEMS TO KOYAK BAWANG SOMEWHERE NEAR ME)

This story is so sad T.T

Well, moving on... Here's the lyrics to the song "Superheroes" by The Script.

All her life she has seen
All the meaner side of me
They took away the prophet's dream for a profit on the street

Now she's stronger than you know
A heart of steel starts to grow

All his life he's been told
He'll be nothing when he's old
All the kicks and all the blows
He won't ever let it show

'Cause he's stronger than you know
A heart of steel starts to grow

When you've been fighting for it all your life
You've been struggling to make things right
That's how a superhero learns to fly
(Every day, every hour
Turn the pain into power)

When you've been fighting for it all your life
You've been working every day and night
That's how a superhero learns to fly
(Every day, every hour
Turn the pain into power)

All the hurt, all the lies
All the tears that they cry
When the moment is just right
You see fire in their eyes

'Cause he's stronger than you know
A heart of steel starts to grow

When you've been fighting for it all your life
You've been struggling to make things right
That's how a superhero learns to fly
Every day, every hour
Turn the pain into power

When you've been fighting for it all your life
You've been working every day and night
That's how a superhero learns to fly

She's got lions in her heart
A fire in her soul
He's a got a beast in his belly
That's so hard to control
'Cause they've taken too much hits
Taking blow by blow
Now light a match, stand back, watch them explode

She's got lions in her heart
A fire in her soul
He's a got a beast in his belly
That's so hard to control
'Cause they've taken too much hits
Taking blow by blow
Now light a match, stand back, watch them explode, explode, explode, explode

When you've been fighting for it all your life
You've been struggling to make things right
That's a how a superhero learns to fly

(Every day, every hour
Turn the pain into power)

When you've been fighting for it all your life
You've been working every day and night
That's a how a superhero learns to fly

When you've been fighting for it all your life
You've been struggling to make things right
That's how a superhero learns to fly

You don't have to be a mutant to save the world.

You don't have to have a wand to get rid of the dark.

You don't have to have flying shoes to keep the world intact.

You don't have to be Tris to save her community.

You don't have to be Katniss.

You don't have to be all those fictional characters saving the world.

You just have to be yourself. Find it, deep down inside you, that superhero lying underneath, waiting to be freed, and to save the world.

Glad to keep you reading, superhero. :)
