A Hero

I think that most people put too much thought into what a hero truely is. In my opinion, a hero is simply someone you can look up to or that you can admire. That person may be admired because they save other's lives, because of their courage to stand up for what they believe in or simply because they listen to other people's problems and are there to comfort them. My hero would have to be my youth minister. He is always there for me and everyone else in out youth group, even other members in the church. He gives up his free time for people with the need of his assisttance. He puts himself last and others first. He is also a very Godly man which is the main reason I look up to him. I strive to be like him as far as being a servant goes. One day when I get older, I want people to look up to me and see me as their hero. One way I can do that is by following in my youth minister's footsteps. I hope that you too will strive to be a hero so that people will look up to you and say, "Wow! I want to be like them some day!" Those are some of the most powerful words that someone can say to you. You never know who's watching you and that person might want to be just like you some day.
