    What does make a hero a hero? Is it there looks? Alternatively, maybe is it their personality? However, the question is what are those essential qualities that make one a hero? Different people require different heroes to look up to or try to emulate. However, whoever it may be, they all possess certain qualities. My hero is my mother, for the reason that she is selfless, compassion, and courage. That kind of selflessness can often be premeditated, since concentrating on others' needs often winds

    My Hero As A Hero

    As a child, a hero to me was someone with superpowers; such as Superman, the Flash, and more. Later I learned that heroes do not always need to be someone who has extraordinary features. Heros don’t need to have to have high importance in society or have a classic sandwich named after them in the local pub. A hero just needs to be someone who cares about your happiness and loves you for being yourself. Someone who is always ready to face challenges and such. Someone who is willing to put a hundred

    Is someone fighting in a war a hero, or is a man flying around with a cape in a movie? As people grow and change so does their definition of a hero. A hero is any person who does the right thing. Children think of heroes as superheroes with crazy powers, but a best friend, or a neighbor could be a true hero. A hero does not run away from a challenge, and is not a coward. At times heroes do not even notice that they are a hero. In a person’s life they will meet dozens of heroes everyday, but not even

    Cole Jackson Miss Sibbach Honors English IV 10 December, 2014 To Be a Hero, or To Not Be a Hero Countless people have tried to say that Beowulf represents the qualities required of an epic hero, but many people also suggest that Beowulf does not show any of these qualities. While Beowulf shows heroic characteristics in all of his acts, both pride and greed motivate his actions. The story of Beowulf contains all of the information needed to show this, but people do not notice that which they do not

    on so whatever you’re going to do, do it. Do it right now. I think a hero would use this quote in a tough situation like if he were trying to save someone he would do it now because time goes on.

    perfect, always agrees with other people, strong and beefy, and trying to save the world. Heroes aren’t always that. Everybody has their own hero, and they don’t have to go on as a well known hero. As long as they did something that that person thinks they did for the good, they would stand a hero to that person. A hero doesn’t have to consider themselves as a hero either. Some heroes remain villains by people opposing them. Susan B. Anthony helped made it possible for women that vote in 1920. Martin

    Heroes 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. The first

    write about our Michigan hero, my mind went blank. Once I thought about it, I had many names racing through my head but I kept coming back to one. However I brushed it off and went through the names one more time. As my description of a hero became clearer, I found myself back to the person I first had thought of:my mom. Robin Renee Yancer was born December, 4th, 1983. Maybe she's not as patient, brave or selfless as most. So you may ask, How is she a hero? When I think of a hero none of those words

    “A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure, in spite of overwhelming obstacles.” This quote, stated by Christopher Reed, best defines a hero in the simplest terms. A hero is someone whose job is to put others safety before their own and show perseverance in tough situations, even if they do not always get the recognition for it. Heroes choose to put others before themselves, and are willing to sacrifice their own lives, for the benefit of others. A great example
