The Glory of the Average Person
This is something that’s been bothering me for some time, and I finally decided to write about it any pass it along to bother someone else…
I love books, movies, and video games about important people – people who are talented, famous, brave, and selfless – people who make a big difference in the world around them for good. Whether I’m reading Ursula LeGuin, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, or the Bible, or playing Fable, Final Fantasy, or Star Wars (Knights of the Old Republic), I’m somehow taking part in a story where the main character rises to greatness to save their world and make a difference for good.
Here’s my problem: Looking at how my life is going, I don’t think I’ll ever live up to any person in those stories I like. It doesn’t look like I’m ever going to be a talented, gifted, or famous person. I don’t think I’ll ever have a chance to do something incredibly important or really good (in a big way) in the world.Â
