My Hero Complex Is Killing Me

The title of tonight’s abstract illustration is “Getting Stabbed By A Thousand Slippery Hands Holding Knives”

I have always had a hero complex it is what compelled me to start lifting weights. It is what compelled me to pursue martial arts to the level where most of the people I know think I am insane. It is also the reason why I do everything in my power to try to save the day on all fronts. I find that people outside of my family truly believe I am superhuman. It just feels that the people closest to me are so use to me flying in to fully invest all I can to help are unimpressed. As I grow older I am beginning to realize that helping or the perception of helping is not always saving the day.
