A first step: Take one day (or night) where you have tickets to a pro sports event, donate the tickets to charity and instead attend a play performed by a local theater company, or listen to a concert by the locally owned Florida Orchestra, or take a soccer ball out to a nearby park and kick it around with the kids. Find new heroes in our community, or make yourself a hero.
