Who are your heroes? Who do you look to for guidance on how to be a virtuous person? (non-family/friends) 500 degen tip for up to 10 answers @bountybot - can you make this into a bounty? Context I think it's important to have civilizational heroes — people (historical or present-day) that we look to for examples of virtue and for guidance. But increasingly feel like there's no room for heroes to exist in our modern world. Wondering how others relate to this, and who they look to outside of family/friends.

I think that's definitely 2 separate questions. I wouldn't say I have heroes. I did as a kid--mostly pro athletes. But as an adult I don't think I could name someone who is a hero. For guidance, I have 4 friends. I've known them all a long time. They are spread around the country but I have a continuous relationship with them and each are the kind of friend that every time you talk or see each other you pick up right where you left off. I can talk to each of them deeply and I highly value their guidance. They each know me well. If more than has concerns about something I'm talking about I pay heightened attention. I think hereos maybe has fallen by the wayside b/c it's too lofty and 'perfect' a vision. We need great friends that we know well and where we can get guidance and/or a model for life.
