Photobucket Hero or Celebrity?

We ran across this little blurb in school today and I thought it had some great food for thought. It's taken from "Ancient Greece! 40 Hands -On Activities to Experience This Wondrous Age" by Avery Hart & Paul Mantell.

A hero overcomes obstacles and helps others.
A celebrity is famous.

A hero seeks honor and wisdom.
A celebrity is famous.

A hero is interested in becoming all that he or she can be.
A celebrity is famous.

I think it is noble for my children to seek to be heroes as they follow God. . . as for celebrity, without heroism, it's fairly hollow.
