Listen to What Butterfly Marketers Mike Filsaime, Paulie Sabol, Donna Fox and Tom Beal Ansere the Heroes Question "Who do you feel are the real heroes in our society today that are not getting the recognition and rewards they deserve? by Ralph Zuranski
Mike Filsaime: The teachers and the pastors and the kids that are working with the youths in the YMCA and the Big Brother Program and things like that. Those are the real heroes out there today.
One thing I really want to talk about is those people that are serving this country over seas. Some of them are so young they don’t even realize how important they are or even what the cause is that they are fighting for, but they are real heroes.
As a mastermind unit together they build up and defend the strongest country in the world and give us the freedom we might take for granted.
Paulie Sabol: The people who are the real heroes who are not getting the recognition they deserve are the people who are speaking out boldly and with their conscious. They are concerned about wars of aggression and rumors of additional wars. They are very concerned about your privacy and your rights being eroded, besmirched and generally trampled upon.
They are worried about a system of government and a system of elections that can be flawed and tampered with and can be frankly stolen. These are people who are speaking a truth that we are even afraid to hear and they continue to do it boldly.
They are using the Internet, and they’re making Internet videos, and they are educating. They are going directly to the people. Those are the heroes. Not only are they not getting the recognition that they deserve, quite often and quite frankly, they are being torn apart, torn down, and chewed up by the system that usually has the power and all the methods and means of communication and mediation.
Donna Fox: We could be here a long time for this list. It would include teachers, parents, teenagers, mothers, single mothers, single fathers, and children. There are amazing heroes who are children out there that don’t get the attention they deserve.
Now because sometimes being a hero is really just about moving forward and doing something for others and even doing something for you in the process, every child that lends a hand to another child and children can be pretty cruel. A child that is kind is a hero.
Nobody rewards them. We don’t reward our police officers and our firemen, the people who are saving our lives, nearly as much as we should be. Or the pilots and the stewardesses that make airplane travel great.
Or the staffs in hotels that keep the bathrooms clean for us, or the ticket taker in the subway station, or the people who keep the roads clean. Everyone does something to help us.
We don’t realize how many people touch us all day long. There aren’t nearly enough sung heroes in this world. There are far too many unsung heroes. There are just far too many.
We can't all be heroes because somebody has to sit on the curb and clap as they go by.
- Will Rogers
Tom Beal: Oh boy. The heroes would be the firemen, police, teachers and all those people are creating so much impact. The military are in some cases taking a lot of heat yet they are protecting the freedoms we embrace. Also those teaching the kids proper things whether its teachers, firemen, police officers, those people I feel are a little under appreciated.
