Who is your favorite action hero? Do you like action heroes from movies like John McClane, Rambo, or Obi-Wan Kenobi. Or from stories you’ve read, like Sherlock Holmes, Robin Hood, or Aragorn. Or do you like the new action hero’s from video games, like Prince of Persia, Splinter Cell or Master Chief. Or do you like your action hero from comic books like Batman, Superman or Wolverine.
What do they all have in common?
They all have a base, a headquarters that they call home. This place provides them sanctuary and an opportunity to recharge. This place gives them a place to clear their head and focus on what’s important to them. Some of these bases are shared with other people that the hero cares about.
