What is a hero?A hero is someone who can save someone else’s life or teach them things that can change their life. 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. They are my heros because they done things that they believe in and that they thought were fair because they wanted to make sure everyone had rights to do whatever they want whenever they wanted to do it. I believe that everyone has a voice in the world and if u believe in something u should do it no matter what the risks are.…
Hero. This word applies to a person who steps out of any planned schedule to do good deeds. They take sacrifices to help others and make an impact on many people’s lives.

There are mixed feelings whether Andrew Carnegie, the huge businessman, deserves the title of being a hero.…

We all have at least one hero. It can be a friend, a family member, or simply a stranger you met on the streets. My hero is my mom, Yan Li Cheng, who is a small Chinese woman with short black hair and warm chocolate eyes. Her smiles and laughter always cheer me up and she always supports me whenever I need it. Yan Li Cheng, my mother, is my hero because she has taught me that working hard will definitely pay off in the future.…
A hero can make a difference in a small, medium, or large way. Some say that you can’t be a hero until you do a difficult or large task to prove that you are one. The truth is, the world is filled with heroes who became one by one simple task. Like your parents, city workers, or many other citizens. People aren’t doing the good to help themselves, there doing it for the person they are helping. Heroes aren’t heroes because they want to be, but because they choose to be kind and they go out of their way…

One kind of hero that exists all over the world is the everyday hero. The person that I consider my everyday hero is my mother. The qualities that make her my hero are her way of doing things, and also how she sacrifices herself for me. For example, she is responsible and shows her stronger side in front of us when we are facing difficult times. Also she is so lovely that almost everyone likes her when they meet her. She always says to me that her duties are to look after me but at the same time to give me the freedom to make mistakes and find bright sides of my mistakes. The way that she influences me is that I see that sometimes she leaves what she is doing for her to take care of me. Even though many people argue that heroes are not real, I will disagree with them because I believe that everybody has a hero who protects them and looks after them.…

The last reason he is my hero is he will always be one of the people I can ask a question to or just to come and hang out with. For example, last year I was helping him change the oil on his lawn tractor and he started it up and let it run for a couple of minutes. I got extremely confused, so I simply asked him why he was doing this. He explained how it is easier to change the oil when it is warm. That is just one more reason he is my Michigan hero.…
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. She inspires me due to how she has handled complex and different situations in her life and makes…

When someone asks you the question, “who has impacted your life?” I’m sure we all can list many amazing people. When people ask me that question one specific person comes to mind, my grandpa, Gordon Westendorf. He saw potential in me at a very young age. He would read to me for hours and hours to allow me to learn as much as i could. He never turned away from a teaching opportunity and always was willing to take time out of his busy day to talk to me or to help me with anything I need.…
