I can't be your superman!

Everybody wants to be superman, and yet no one is, and this is a guy who wears his underwear outside his pants, and when i did that in my college, the girls went ewww and the teachers asked me to take a day off from my tiring schedule. hmmmph life cant be fair at times!!!

But there is onething I admire about superman, he rescues and helps people when they need him the most, and that incidentally is the topic of conversation...

It makes me think of all the times people have helped me and i question myself to find out, if i have ever done enough to justify the faith they have entrusted on me.It's true we dont really know what we have lost till its gone, leaving things for tomorrow and taking things for granted have made me lose the most important person in my life and i will always regret that i could never do more than what i did to make her life happy. Why can't i just have some superpowers to see that all are happy and i'm there when they need me the most. I guess i can never be anybody's superman and the more i try, the more the expectations would grow, this is one flaw i will always carry on just like the sailor did, when he had to carry the albatross across his shoulders when he shot it....

But then ofcourse everyone has his own flaws, just like superman does...I'm sure you have read reports about how he is spending time in jail now for killing his girlfriend when she commented "Superman you came faster than a speeding bullet"
