To me, hero is an incredibly broad term.

My opinion of a hero is that they need to be selfless. They need to be the type of people that are willing to risk everything for that one person. A hero is more than just bravery and kindness. They put others first, but most importantly they protect others from going down a path that they once were on. Heroes are everywhere, on the streets, in a library, or even a boxing ring. The heroes I chose today are Taylor Winston and Jenn Lewis, Aaron Valencia, and a man named Khail Sweeney.

“No hero ever believes that they are one” (Neal Shusterman). This quote can change the life of an individual. It can influence them to realize that anybody can be a hero and it may change the way they think about a hero they have. They might associate a hero with a friend who is popular but are very humble and kind. A hero doesn’t always have to have superpowers or fight evil. They can just be somebody who you look up to. Some icons people have are not always what they seem to be on the outside. Through reading novels and learning about historical and modern heroes it has become clear that heroes are the ordinary people who push through the challenges of life even if it’s really difficult, they are the people who are humble, but not all heroes followed the rules.
