A Real Hero

A REAL HERO? By: Synthia Miner What does it take to be a hero? Being a single mother, keeping a family strong. or a single father, helping his daughter along. Maybe a soldier leaving his newly pregnant wife. or making the ultimate sacrifice, to save only one life? What makes a real hero? Knowing how to stop a drug lab or a bomb. or having the power to save a child gone wrong. Is it being able to help the hungry, or saving everything that’s been lonely. How do we define a hero? Every way you look at it, people can say, heroes come naturally…. in a way, But; when you dig down deep, I see only one answer A real hero must have the will to live; whether for him or her self, or everything and everyone one around them. Heroes have the courage to stand up for what they believe in. From this I say, that my Uncle Jason Mullholand is a real hero. He has fought for his life, not just to be alive, but for raising his family. So you see, heroes are hear everyday. It’s the soldier fighting for peace, and the mother battling cancer. And the kids you ignore hunting for food, Just to feed their always hungry siblings. A real hero values the life of everyone, and charges with the courage of love. To every hero out there Please keep up the fight for life!
