A Hero

When people think of the word "hero" many different people come to mind. They may think of Batman, Superman, Spider-man or maybe they think of a fireman, policeman, or soldier. Not many people think of the regular everyday people who are heroes. A hero, in my opinion, is anyone who makes a positive difference in someones life. My mother is a hero to me. She gives me a home and food and all of the other things necessary for life. Actors are heroes to some people. If you have a dream of being on stage or in a movie you might look up to an actor or actress. Singers, scientists and surgeons are heroes. In the eyes of most children super humans are heroes. When people understand more about life and the world they realize heroes are more than men in tights, heroes are ordinary people who do extraordinary things. Surgeons save lives, policemen make cities safe, parents teach you life lessons. Anyone can be considered a hero and everybody has a different hero. It all depends on who has changed your life and who you look up to.
