My Hero
My Hero Most people's definition of a Hero would be someone who is famous. However, my definition of a Hero is someone that cares about you and is always willing to lend a helping hand whenever needed. My Hero is my mom, even though she's not perfect, she is always there for me. When I'm sad she can always put a smile on my face.

Her name is Suzanne Gibbons, she was born on March 28, 1960 in Birmingham, Alabama. She has dark brown hair and brown eyes. My mom is tall and thin. She is very athletic, she runs a mile every morning before she drives me to school and goes to work.

My mother is hilarious and is hardly ever serious except when she needs to be. Some mothers are really strict and never allow their children to do anything, but my mom is different. She allows me to experience things for myself. I know that if I need her she is always there. There are times when she is strict, such as school work, grades, cleaning my room, etc. She has always taught me to respect others as I would want them to respect me. My mom is really laid back, but she is stern as well.

My mom moved around alot when growing up. My grandfather was in then Army. Mom went to alot of different schools. She graduated from high school from Winchester, Kentucky. When she was in high school she played on the basketball team. The team won the State Championship two years in a row. After high school she attended University of Kentucky. She played on the basketball team at the University and fell during the game.

As a result, she injuried her knee and tore her ACL and she had to have therapy for a long time. Needless to say, that ended her carrer in basketball.

Now that you know my mom, I guess you are wondering why I chose her as my Hero? Well, she is my Hero because she always helps me when I need her. I can remember one time in seventh grade I had a project due. I had known about this project for sometime and waited until the last minute. Well, when I told mom about that I needed

    I think my parents are hero worthy because they constantly put themselves aside for me and my other two sisters. My parents names are Heidi and Jody Ingle. They have been together since 5th grade, but they didn't actually start dating until their freshman year, shortly after graduation they were married. They always ask if we need money or anything for the sports we play, we are always the top priority. I do feel bad sometimes because I know I will never be able to pay back everything they've bought and done for me, but even if they never bought me or did anything for me I would still love them the exact same.…

Three people that inspire me or made me want to make a difference in the world are Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr. , and Rosa Parks.

    There are many definitions of the word ‘hero’ but Dictionary.com defines a hero as a man of distinguished courage or ability, admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities, a person who, in the opinion of others, has heroic qualities or has performed a heroic act and is regarded as a model or ideal, the principal male character in a story, play, film, etc. While growing up, I can remember many instances where we were asked to write about and describe who we felt our ‘hero’ was. The common and cliche answer amongst many people is “my mom.” Under the dictionary definition I don’t know that all of my classmates moms, including my own, are heroes.…

    The definition of a hero could be someone who you idolize, someone who does something commendable and significant (either for you personally, the world, or both), someone who affects life in a positive way and is a valuable addition to the world and/or someone who possesses admirable qualities. If any aspect of that definition applies to you then there is a great chance that you are a hero to somebody. Alyce Putnam, my great grandmother on my mother’s side, is my hero. At 94 years of age, she is the oldest grandparent that I have. She’s my hero for a multitude of reasons, some of which include the qualities she possesses and her daily actions.

    Everyone has a different definition of a hero. Mine is a person who has impacted my life, or lives in general. They are selfless and genuine people who care about others more than themselves. A hero has no gender, size, or age. Anyone is capable of being a hero, but it’s very rare to find someone who possesses all of the qualities. People like a war veteran, a public figure, or an everyday person are all people who fit my definition of a hero. Irena Sendler, Tyler Joseph, and my mom are prime examples of what I think a hero is and should…

    Last year, I went through the hardest things I 've ever been faced with in my life. I lost my grandpa and two months later I lost my aunt and soon after our home was foreclosed on. This left me thinking, " Is this the end of the beginning or the beginning of the end". What I needed was something to help get me through these traumas. That 's where my hero, Ozzy Osbourne, comes in. In the essay "My Heroes", Elizabeth Berg describes how her daughters hero is her friend Laura.
