There are many human beings in the world that inspired many people in life.
At least there are 3 types of people that I think is inappropriate for us to admire.
First, the people who are in the midst of the surrounding conditions of temptation, but still maintaining the sanctity of his heart, to maintain the loyalty and love for God. It is not easy, especially in a world filled with destructive concentration. It's hard to maintain fidelity to God. Examples of them are like the prophets and companions, or simple people who always hasten to put the affair with God, either business or a universal ritual. Ritual matters such as every call to prayer rang out, no matter the conditions of rain or heat, is there a party or other interesting performances, they faithfully went to the mosque. While still a lot of us who prefer drowsiness, television shows, busy yourself or feeling lazy. Universal matters as are any condition was overcome grief sorrow or joy remain in God's way forward affair.
Second, the people who with their own way have contributed to major in others, as did Gandhi, Mother Theresa, Edison, etc. We live only once and briefly, it is proper to try to do something meaningful for the lives of others and for the next generation. Not having to always be changing the face of the world, even to even small matters like the sacrifices of the mothers who raise their children in the womb to adulthood and with full dedication and striving for the good of their children also deserve to our success admire.
Third, the people who could forge themselves, cultivate their talent with potential and work hard so as to reach the optimal point. Like Helen Keller, blind-deaf woman who could reach an university degree, or Nick Vujicic has no arms and legs but his life inspired many people, world-class athletes, artists with works of masterpiece. Success is 1% talent, 99% hard work, so said Edison. So we need introspection ourselves if we waste the potential and talents that God blessed us.
So it can make as our benchmarks for the 'greatness' person are :
- How close they are with The God,
- How helpful they are to the fellow human beings,
- How optimal they are to develop their own potentials and improving themselves continuously.
