I have rediscovered my love of Superman from when I was younger! I remember watching Christopher Reeve in the Superman movies when I was little and being AMAZED at the sheer goodness, humility and strength of Superman. When I was in high school, the show Lois & Clark came on TV and I was able to enjoy yet another version of Superman's great qualities. So what if Dean Cain had brown eyes and was "ethnic"! He made a very handsome and thoughtful Clark Kent and a perfect man of steel.
I now have a budding collection of Superman stuff... my very comfy Superman jammies :-), my new Superman keychain (thanks Laura), my Essential Superman Encyclopedia, and of course my 2 pair of earrings, my silver "S" necklace and my beautiful Lana Lange "neutralized" kryptonite necklace from Smallville. Oh, and a small assortment of retro man in tights postcards too.
Awesome!

when i was a little boy, i collected superman comic books, i dressed up like superman, and i watched the tv show. to me he was an icon of how i thought life was about transforming from mild-mannered to someone great, powerful and compassionate.
as an adult, i still aspire to transform. i make mistakes (being human) but the superman in me is there, striving against all kryptonite and weakness, to forge ahead and do better. you're only as good as your last superman episode.
if u are interested, i could always share an essay i wrote on superman just a month or so ago in response to a post on facebook from a friend. about the superman/ clark kent duality.
hope you are happy and healthy.
