DP Daily Prompts: Unsung Heroes
We all have our semi-secret, less known personal favorites –a great B-side, an early work by an artist that later became famous, an obscure(but delicious) family recipe. Share one of your unsung heroes with us–how did you discover it? Why has it stayed off everyone’s radar?
I have a few unsung heroes on my list, one of them is my dad, his accomplishments were many, unfortunately he was in a part of the world where his gift was not recognized, instead of welcoming him, they tried to push him aside, they were not successful, but he died very young.
Second is one of my youngest brother, he was a brilliant student, he loved to read about everything, he was doing Phd. in space science, he too like my dad died early.
Then there was my mom, she’d wow anyone with her cooking skills, friends and family knew her, the knowledge of her gift stayed within the family and friends.
At this moment I know another gifted individual, who is capable of being very famous, he knows it but as far as I know, he doesn’t use his potential as he should which in my mind is a shame.

Thank you very much for writing this post. Yes, sometimes Fate takes away brilliant people at an untimely age. One can feel the warmth in this post as you share these beautiful memories about unsung but deservedly great and gifted individuals.
Let’s also pray that the other gift individual mentioned in the last paragraph manages to use his potential. When I last heard from him, he was busy doing something towards that end 🙂
Frankly speaking I’m not so sure.

All good wishes,
