Hero Worship

Laird Hamilton is my hero, or at least one of my top 3. There are many reasons for this. His spirituality and positive outlook on life. His dedication as a father and husband. His utter humility. The way he innovates, and constantly pushes himself not only as a surfer, but as a human. He is one of the few icons left that children can healthily aspire to be with no ill consequences, and as a result he is respected worldwide by people of all walks of life. Oh yeah, and this is what he does for a living...
