A few books demonstrate heroic characteristics masterfully through their characters. Beowulf portrays a strong, self-sacrificing hero. Canterbury Tales shows us a wise and caring hero. Sir Gawain and the Green Knight displays a flawed, loyal hero. These three men give us some of the attributes it takes to be considered a hero. These books tell us that to be a hero, you have to sacrifice, have wisdom, and loyalty.

Lastly, courage is a major characteristic in heroes. To face your fears to save another person is a very significant thing that any human can do. Imagine that someone you care for was stuck somewhere and there are massive spiders in the way. Courage drives us to save your significant other. Also, courage is also doing something and not knowing the effects of it to benefit you and your loved ones. For example, I’m going to talk about my dad again. When he makes a business

A quality a hero must have is bravery. Bravery is being courageous, fearless. Bravery is needed to be heroic. You have to be strong to help people or yourself. You have to do things that are scary but you have to be strong.

In the book The Odyssey, by Homer, he proclaims '"friends, were hardly strangers at meeting danger--and this danger is no worse than what we have faced when Cyclops penned us up in his vaulted cave with crushing force."(Homer 277) when facing hard times Odysseus and his men kept fighting through it. When facing difficult times you have to learn how to problem solve and make yourself learn to be a smarter person from doing this.

Often, truly heroic leaders have the same few qualities. Out of these few, the first that generally come to mind when thinking about a modern day hero are both courage and bravery. Courage and bravery are the two that coincide with each other. Courage means having the strength to withstand danger, fear, or difficulty, while bravery is showing mental/moral strength to face such dangers, fears, or difficulties (Courage/Bravery). Although, it is difficult to achieve, many heroes display these when going up against overwhelming situations. Other qualities shown in today’s heroes are their selflessness and their caring hearts. Being selfless means putting others first, that being said, many heroic figures do not expect a favor in return. Similar but separate is caring, which is showing that they are truly concerned for others and they display their kindness by helping others though selflessness.

What it takes to be a hero and who you are to be a hero.

Their purpose has not been the classical hero’s purpose but instead, the modern meaning of greatness is service to others.

Have you ever been inspired by a hero because our technology today can make anybody a hero in an instant and can be applied today without much thought. We need to evaluate what it takes to be a hero and how they affect us. Heroes inspire us to improve our lives and make us a better person. Evidence suggests they determine the way we behave because we admire, adore, emulate them, place them in high regard and respect their accomplishments. Their qualities of courage, selflessness, humility, patience, caring, passion, integrity, honesty and confidence are all attributes that we all posses but it is whether we use them or not.

Bravery, courage, intrepidity, boldness, daring, and prowess in war are a hero’s characteristics. However a hero is understood to be different to everyone. Upon closer examination, many different qualities than these become apparent. The definition of heroism changes with the context and time. Heroes of the past are not necessarily heroes of present time and vise versa. A person can be a hero for saving the life of one or of millions.

     Bravery is a great trait for a hero to posses. I think bravery is a key quality because you don’t always know what lies ahead of you and you have to be brave to continue. A good example of this is Charles Lindburgh. He was the first person to fly across the Atlantic Ocean. I believe that took a great amount of bravery because no one had ever made it across, so he didn’t know what lie ahead of him. One of his many good quotes he said, “The most effective way to do it, is to just do it”, (Lindburgh 1).
