While thinking of things on why they happen, a friend told me that I do have a hero complex. Hero complex is defined by wanting to be the knight in shinning armor for a damsel in distress. True to its sense that I do want to be that knight. No other reason but I just want to help a troubled soul. During college, I was also labeled as a knight for damsels. I personally do not see this in a negative sense, because of the reasons I have.
That same friend who told me of my supposed hero complex said that it is an ego booster for guys. Girls tend to fall for those knight and it is very inevitable. This made me think about the subject. Yes I do want to be knight and have fallen for a few damsels. Also, a number of damsels did fell for me but that was never my intention.
My reason started when I was in another depressed state. I am not religious and I do believe in things that only a few understands. The whole religion is very confusing and during my dark days in college, the New Age belief became my ally. Looking at all religions, the teachings boil down to the simplest rule which is to do good. Yes I seldom pray, I seldom go to church, but I try my best to be a good soul. I try to help people around me and it just so happen that I respect women and I am helping a lot of women when they are troubled. Does it boast my ego? Maybe yes and maybe no. I do not ask such thing to myself. All I wanted is to help others so they can still believe that goodness still exist. The idea of a good world is almost extinct. Let us try to revive the idea of a bright world we are in today.
