He is no longer the high-flying executive nor the billionaire.  He is not even the next door millionaire.  He is not also the intrepid adventurer. He cerrtainly is not the bull-riding cowboy.  He is not even the policitician who revolutionizes a nation.  So who is he? 

 

He is the masterful juggler who can play will all the various roles demanded of him from an ever complex 21st century living.  He can switch between roles better than an actor, in the sense that the switch goes as deep as  to change his attitude and even the flow of all his energies. 

 

This new 21st Century Hero has not been publicized yet.  But he will be.  There is no alternative to this world struggling to make sense of how to survive psychologically and emotioanlly is a world that is getting ever more complex.  I am in Nepal , third world country, that is much slower than NewYork or Singapore, and I am feeling the waves of uncomprehensibility hitting me everyday from the toughest angles.  I can only imagine what pressure at the psyco/emotional/spiritual level , people in the developed and developing world must undergo. 

 

Myself I am guided by a spiritual power.  In the midst of all my roles confusion, this force directed me to this new ideal .  It said, “You are a 21st Century Hero.  So live up to your new identity and re-design your role identities so that their will be maximum peace, harmony , happiness, beauty, abundance and wisdom in your life and those around yours.  If you don’t take up this new macro identity, others will get the axe from you, no doubt.  But yourself will be in 3 times worse conditions as a result.  It is not worth it.  All the money you can make, won’t make you happy.  Making money is easy.  With a bit of creativity and passion, money showers upon one.  But these two don’t guarantee happiness.  Happiness is an art long forgotten by this generation of men and women.  It requires tolerance and re-adjusting.”

 

I was whispered those words.  But they could have been meant for you too.  Think about it.  Join the league of the 21st century heroes.Â
