Superman

We all know him, he's neither a plane nor a bird, he's the last son of krypton, the God amongst men one and only superman!

As children we loved him, the heroic feats of saving the world, protecting the people around, being a symbol of hope and all that while managing a secret identity! Gosh!! It definitely takes a superman to do it!

For those who are not so nerdy as me, Superman is an alien who was sent to earth in a pod by his kryptonian parents because their planet was going to blow up. (Just for info. Their planet was in far away galaxy and their sun was red, basically entire physics there was kinda different except for the fact they looked exactly like humans) 

So his parents stuffed their little infant in pod and sent it on this amazing journey to earth. The child was found and adopted by an old couple on farm who didn't have a child of their own and they raised him Clark Kent. As the child grew up they understood he has powers unimaginable by any other human being on earth, some of which are super strength,speed,endurance, agility, xrays vision, heat vision, super hearing abilities, immunity to all physical and biological damages and the list goes on.

In the course of time we realize that even with all these seemingly endless powers he is still struggling to keep it together...

5 Things to Learn

1. Morals Over Might 

For a man with such powers it is easy to win over the world ,just take a look mad and they turn into ashes, strength which can take armies by 1 hand. But Superman chooses not to, he chooses to live a simple life just like the rest of us , I would credit that a lot to his earth mother Martha Kent who raised a child like that,I mean they all could have ruled the earth with no one to even have guts to confront them. It’s his morals that stops him from being bad and being the selfless hero we know and love. Usually we find every superhero to have a dark past or tragedy or an accident that gave them the powers and a motto to use them But that is not the case for Superman he is all about morals all he ever did was always governed by his morals even his job his job was inspired to fight he grew up watching  crimes and  he knew that one day will be able to stop them .So the thing I learned was always morals or a set of ethics is always better and greater Dan the powers that we have it is a set of morals the ethics that tell us how to use the power and whether or not we are misusing them so that is my message whenever you are in over power to someone please think twice before using it for your own good.

2. Symbol of hope 

That big *** S*** that we see on his chest is not an S on diamond but a symbol of hope in my personal life too that symbol it reminds me to have hope, it reminds me that even in the darkest of nights when we can't see the dangers ,when we're deep in sarow or disgrace, dawn is somewhere near and when the sun rises all doubts, sadness and pain of yours will dissolve. That symbol teaches that  there's always hope no matter how much big the problem is, we can solve it if you have hope. He gives people someone to rely on to trust and be with.  I really  think that we all should learn to be hopeful and someday if kept our work on better days will come.  

Now in real life a Superman may not come but I urge you to be a symbol of hope to someone  and be that shoulder to rely on. 

3. Energy transmutation 

Superman gets his incredible powers because of the yellow sun of earth. His cells transmute the energy of sun and make him Superman. Now I’m not saying we can do the same though we DO make vitamin D from the sun.., but what we can do is, transform the energies around us into  more useful and positive forms and use it for the good of others. Let me put it in terms of science “Energy can't be created nor destroyed, it can only be transformed from 1 from to another “ So transmutation of any energy in channelised form can transform you too.

4. Flying up and high

APJ Abdul Kalam once said “when It rains, other birds hide in shelter to be safe from the pour, but eagle on the other hand, flies above the clouds and And saves himself from the water” in a similar way you have never seen Superman quarrel with anyone or get in anyone else’s business, this one works alone for one for the most of the time and stays away from gossip, problems and petty stuff unlike other superheroes,in the same way we should also know to focus on ourselves ,polish ourselves to perfection and work up on ourselves minding our own business without the need or want to get in other peoples brains Superman  teaches us the power of focused mind and transmutation of those energies in proper direction.

5. Making a brand of ourselves 

In the past many years you may or may not have noticed That Superman is, was, and will always will be a brand a big brand among other superheroes  they need team mates to be as a collectibles but not Supermamon.Superman is solo with or without anybody else in this team Superman will always be a collectible a wonderful memory for children superman is on brand and he is the most powerful powerful superhero ever created in the history... something to be counted that for ,Similar way we too have the power to create ourselves, to renew, reinvent ourselves in a way that only we can do superman yes uses the power of sun create and give energy to himself but we can be that sun for ourselves we can be the ray of hope that we need transformer selves in similar way I learn how to make myself special, valuable, responsive to the situations I'm Facing everyday. 

Superman has been an idol for a lot of kids growing up, he gave us imagination, hope built our mindset, helped us to face adversity ,without losing our morals,he taught us to sacrifice for the greater good and multitask all that with a secret identity.
