My Hero
When I think of my hero. I don't think of bravery or wealth. I don't think about the changes they made or the way they mended minds. I don't count how many lives they saved or how many titles they've won. When I think of my hero, I think about the reason why they did it. For this reason, I do not have one sole hero. A fire fighter pulled wounded people out of a burning house not to be known as a hero. He pulled them out because, " If I didn't pull them out, who would?" An inventor doesn't create machines to obtain fame and wealth. He creates these machines to help the greater good. A hero isn't defined by what they have done. A hero defined by why they did it.
