Episode Choices - A Country Ballad Cover

Choices - A Country Ballad

This country ballad was inspired and adapted from Erika Kirk’s commencement speech at Hillsdale College in May 2026. Enjoy the inspiration! Choices lyrics Through his learning,Charlie recognized his dutyTo pursue truthAnd to defend libertyThis responsibility —He felt to GodHe felt it to our familyHe felt it to our countryThat was born from what he learned Life is not definedBy the abundance of optionsBut by the weight of the choicesThat you make within them,And those choices more often than notAre not dramatic or obviousBut quiet and compoundingForming the blueprint of your lifeLong before anyone else can seeWhat you are building Each of us must order his own houseLive rightly in aimFor high and beautiful thingsContinue forward in lifeWith clarity and intentionAnd you will come to understand That life is not definedBy the abundance of optionsBut by the weight of the choicesThat you make within themThose choices, more often than not,Are not dramatic or obviousBut quiet and compoundingForming the blueprint of your lifeLong before anyone else can seeWhat you are building It is so humblingThe contrast betweenHuman limitationAnd God’s infinity That’s why our choices,Even the smallest ones,MatterThey matter so much That’s why our choices,Even the smallest ones,MatterThey matter so much Heroes for Today is a reader-supported publication.

Episode Happy Mother's Day from an Actress Cover

Happy Mother's Day from an Actress

Mothers are the great heroes of American families. One day is hardly enough to celebrate all that mothers contribute to families and society, but it will have to do. At least that. Happy Mother’s Day! This song is adapted from an acceptance speech by actress Jessie Buckley (as described in a column by Jennifer Oliver O’Connell): https://redstate.com/jenniferoo/2026/03/16/a-hollywood-starlet-praises-marriage-family-and-motherhood-n2200265 [https://redstate.com/jenniferoo/2026/03/16/a-hollywood-starlet-praises-marriage-family-and-motherhood-n2200265]. The Mother’s Day Song lyrics The incredible chaos of a mother’s heartThe capacity of a mother to loveA mother who can’t wait to discover lifeBeside her children, boys and girlsA mother’s love never goes awayNo matter how much she ages Celebrate what matters in lifeLove, marriage, and family above allA mother is the ultimate optimistShe believes the future is worth investing inShe believes in raising her kids to inherit it One day,the last crayon drawing is taken off the fridgeThe last lunchbox gets packedAnd the last little voice calls, “Mommy”Time moves fast, but love doesn’tThat’s why I’m giving her somethingThat holds every reason she’s loved,In my own wordsMoms deserve the worldWhy not give your mom your world today? One day, it will be the last hugThe last goodbyeThe last see you laterThe last dinnerThe last movieThe last time you get to tell your momYou love herMake sure she knows nowTell her today We love our mothers!Happy Mother’s Day!
