Who Is My Personal Hero
My personal hero, my Grandpa, is there for me through thick and thin. From helping me fix the lawnmower, to showing how to nail and screw boards together when I was 3. To tell you more about him at age 17 he got drafted into the army where he served for 2 years as a hard working soldier in Vietnam.
Then at age 19 he bought 5 acres of his mom and dad and started to work at Chrysler. Over the years he meet and married my grandma and started a small farm for his kids. At Chrysler, he worked on the assembly line where he built and put together cars. He knows so much regarding cars that if you need a hint or trick all you have to do is ask him and he's on it.
My grandpa is a great man and never stops moving. I can't remember a day in my life

    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.…

    We all face major hardships in our life, but I’ve met very few that have gone through as many as my grandma has. Being born into a world of war and terror is simply unimaginable, but my grandma had to go through it all. Never seeing what life is truly supposed to be like seems depressing, and not knowing when it will end seems even more. My grandma may argue that for her it wasn’t that bad because she didn’t know that life could be any better and was accustomed to living in a war, but from an outside point of view I will never really understand. At the end of the day, this strong woman pulled through and was able to find success. Looking back at her past, my grandma says that she is grateful for the opportunities she was given. My grandma had to go through all the phases of a hero’s journey including the departure, the initiation, and the return.…
