More than a player, LBJ is a Role Model

The Prince of Cleveland
For those who forget that LeBron James is a good-hearted person, he provided us with a reminder yesterday.  He posted a video of a clip from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air's famous 'Why he don't want me speech'.  In the speech, Will vents about the problems that he has faced from growing up fatherless.  His father makes yet another excuse and Will has had enough.  It is a message that must continue to spread around the world as so many children grow up fatherless.  LeBron also faces life without a father so he decided to spread the message via Instagram.  It may seem like an effortless act yet LBJ understands the impact that he has and knows that he has the power to motivate his male fans with children, to be better fathers.  LeBron James is more than an athlete, he is a role model.

Journey-Man James Dau Voire states, “I’ve mastered the art of bouncing back.” LeBron James has lost in the NBA Finals four times and the latest one weighed on him heavily: “It would hurt a lot easier if I just didn’t make the playoffs and I didn’t have a shot at it.” Paul Coelho’s novel The Alchemist focuses on fulfilling your “Personal Legend,” and chasing your dreams.   The novel follows a boy named Santiago in his journey to Egypt after he has a recurring dream of finding treasure there. Coelho states, “Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself.   And that no heart has suffered when it goes in search of its dreams.” LeBron James is on his third journey for the treasure he desires.   James is one of the few NBA superstars that is not afraid of failure.   After losing in the NBA Finals four times, James knows that “it’s the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.” No-Journey Jordan Michael Jo
