I’ve had\u00a0this blog-post sitting in my drafts folder ever since I watched all four Superman movies featuring Christopher Reeves and the 2006 version Superman Returns<\/i>\u00a0with Brandon Routh in California with Seth, Isaac, and Aunt Sarah. \u00a0After that movie marathon I fell in love with Superman. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

this is Brandon Routh with his “hipster” glasses
see – he’s just as attractive as superman!
haha – he IS superman.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

See, something I’ve always found fascinating about all superhero movies in general is that the public\u00a0needs<\/i>\u00a0a hero. \u00a0Gotham needs Batman. \u00a0Metropolis (or the whole world, I suppose) needs Superman. \u00a0These heroes are their Saviors. \u00a0And although there aren’t any superheroes around these parts flying and catching reports and helicopters, we have everyday heroes that mean so much to us. \u00a0We find hope in our heroes. \u00a0And since we put so much hope in our heroes, we need to have\u00a0good\u00a0<\/i>heroes. \u00a0Not the amazing basketball superstar Kobe Bryant or baseball legends that end up being on steroids. \u00a0We can find our heroes in the good people around us. \u00a0Our grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles, mentors, professors, siblings, prophets, and pastors. \u00a0And we can find the hero in ourselves, too.<\/p>\n

My favorite superhero is Superman. \u00a0I love Clark Kent too.<\/p>\n

I fell in love with the movies featuring the 6’4″ Christopher Reeves (I mean, 6’4″ tall, dark, and handsome – I’m not gonna complain). \u00a0I fell in love with the superhero Superman – he’s now officially my favorite one. \u00a0And I also fell in love with Superman’s alter-ego Clark Kent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Christopher Reeves as Superman.
His only disguise – glasses. It fools Lois Lane.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

I mean – some people need a superman in their lives, but give me a Clark Kent and I’ll be happy. \u00a0I find his hipster glasses quite attractive, actually. \u00a0I never quite understood what he saw in Lois Lane, either.<\/p>\n

Superman’s only weakness is Kryptonite. \u00a0He can take a bullet to his eyeball. \u00a0You can shoot him with anything and he’ll be fine. \u00a0He can pick absolutely anything up. And, that’s pretty cool. I also think he’s the one with the most good in him. \u00a0Every hero has his tragic flaw, and his is Kryptonite. \u00a0Which Lex Luther uses to his advantage every time.<\/p>\n

Clark Kent is just adorable. He’s smart (well, the glasses make him look smart at least), kind, caring, and sensitive. \u00a0And underneath all that is the Man of Steel. \u00a0Clark Kent is like the kid next door who’s quite attractive but you never give him the time of day because he’s just too nice. \u00a0<\/i>\u00a0And although Clark is quite clumsy I find that quite endearing.<\/p>\n

And yes, I know Clark Kent\/ Superman doesn’t exist in real life. But someday I’ll find my Superman. \u00a0Or my Clark Kent \ud83d\ude42 \u00a0Yes – someday I’ll find my Clark Kent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
