WHO IS YOUR HERO - AND WHY?

THIS MIGHT BE ONE OF MY MORE THAN MANY USELESS BLOGS - BUT.

WHO ARE YOUR HEROES AND WHY?

Mine are:

Socrates (Greece) - the father of reason

Shankara (India) - the man who welded spirituality and reason together

May (China) - because she keeps my feet on the ground

I have many others but this is a starting point!

Comment by Richard Roman on June 1, 2012 at 23:54: I am thinking Jeff, more on the lines of who has inspired you personally

Who has changed your life - given you inspiration?

I know we have our Ghandi (?) and Mandella but who has personally had an effect on you?

Comment by CCF Beijing on June 1, 2012 at 23:46: Aung San Suu Kyi. She is beacon of light and hope to all

those who are oppressed in the world
