This woman inspired myself and my siblings to be who we are now. To fight hard for what they want and what it takes to get it. This person is not only a brave hero to many, but she is a loving mother of mine. Her name is Zejna and she is not quite the person who is known for the simplest things, but she is known for who she is. She has beautiful green eyes that match her oval face and rosy cheeks that show the enthusiasm she has for everything. My mother always was the person to help out others and those in need because she knows how it feels like to get something from others. She always had the impression of others as hard working, kind, and loyal. One of the things she says to her children of advice is, “All can happen if it’s wanted.” Whenever there is a lack of participation of some sort, she will say this exact thing to bring your confidence up.
When Zejna looks at me and sees that I am upset or sad, she will do anything to raise that frown to a smile. She would joke

The first footsteps we've ever taken are the ones that have imprinted the inside of our mothers' stomachs. Mothers don't just give birth to us, they give us a life to live. Now, some might say mothers are supposed to give birth; it's a natural process that is their duty. It's physically straining to have a child, but it takes a true warrior to raise a child. It is often forgotten how much they continuously provide for us and how many sacrifices they make. My mother has been my inspiration, not because of her title as my mother but because she is the prime example of a what I call a hero.
The person who I consider to be a hero is my mom, FBI Special Agent Jill Stillman. She is more than a typical mom because she protects and serves our country everyday, but first makes sure to be up at 6:00am to wake me and my brother up so we can dress, eat breakfast and get to the bus stop. She always puts us first before herself along with my two dogs and cat and then she gets ready for work. I consider her a hero because after the 9/11 attacks, she helped capture and eliminate Osama Bin Laden. She has investigated criminal and counterterrorism cases and early in her career, she found evidence against the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing subject Tim McVey to send him to prison. She has been a Special Agent for 25 years and volunteered to go
During World War ll, Frank Foley was helping the Jews get off 8 trains. He did the right thing, and was the hero because he helped the Jews survive. Jews were afraid of what might happen to them. Other people stood by and did nothing, but Frank Foley made correct choices during the holocaust.

There have been a vast number of lives that have touched mine. Many different people have shared a piece of their soul in my formation.

George R. R. Martin, an american novelist and short-story writer, once said,“My own heroes are the dreamers, those men and women who tried to make the world a better place than when they found it, whether in small ways or great ones” (Brainy Quotes). Almost everyone has a dream that tends to lead to a greater good, whether it be as big as world peace or as little as giving medical attention at your local hospital. No matter the size of the goal, there are always multiple jobs made to contribute to the end product. My grandmother is one of these people contributing in a way that she loved, by taking care of others. With hard-work she successfully managed to pitch-in on a larger aspiration. Ruth Neuzil, is a hero to others and to me through her kindness and determination that kept her on the path of success.
My dad is one of my heroes for many reasons. He is in the army and fights for our country. I think that every person in the army is a hero because of how brave they are. My dad would always tell me stories of him killing the bad guys and saving us from the terrorist. One time he shot the enemy and his daughter ran up to my dad and started crying, screaming, and hitting him because he killed her dad, but if he didn’t kill him my dad would’ve been killed. This story really moved me because it’s sad and wonderful at the same time. He shows his heroism because he killed the bad guy to save himself and others, but it’s sad because someone got killed and his daughter was heartbroken. He also had to lead his troops into combat which I think is heroic because it takes a brave person to put themselves first. Also, he didn’t have to be in the army, he chooses to because he wanted to help people even if it meant he was going to be killed. All in all, my dad is one of my heroes who taught me to never take life for granted.
