Decent Essays

“Heroes are ordinary people who make themselves extraordinary.” ~Gerard Way. Heroes come in many shapes and sizes, but they above all inspire us to be better in all ways.

Heroes can influence us in many different ways, so it’s good to have inspiring heroes such as Jesus, Christopher Paolini, and C.S. Lewis. Having a hero means you have someone to look up to, someone that can show you what to do in the tough times, and help you lead your life down the right path. A hero can be anyone in your life, whether it’s your mom or dad, your teacher, your coach, or someone that doesn’t know you personally like your favorite author or celebrity. The one thing that’s important, is that you have heroes
