My Hero

What makes someone a hero? To me, a hero is someone courageous, fearless, brave, and willing to put another person's life ahead of their own. Someone who is ready for a challenge and won't back down. A person who is a good role model and sets high standards. Someone who is honest, trustworthy, loving, caring, and helpful. My hero would be my mother because she has always been there for me, and always will be there. She has taught me right from wrong, guided me in decision making, and always pushes me to my limits. She has provided a roof over my head and food to eat. My mom is a counselor. She helps people cope with their problems, so she always encourages me and always gives the best advice. She is always really tough on me, and expects 110 percent. However, she is also very caring and sincere. These are the things that make my mom, my hero.
