Superman, Wonder woman, Iron Man, and Spider man- they are
the icons who first and foremost come into people's minds when we speak about
heroes. How do you define a hero? Or rather, at does it even take to be a hero?
Does it require one to have superpowers and super strengths and super flying
skills or such? Does it require one who would recklessly jump into the face of
arduous danger to save mankind? Or does it require one to have the passion to
do hard work and push to overcome many boundaries and limitations
wholeheartedly? Even with all of these "requirements", there is but
only ONE hero for me. And that is none other than my beloved family.
My father may not have super strength like Superman, but he
is my hero because he ensures that I could safely get to and from school
everyday, because he gives me all the reason to work hard and be a better
person and because he imparts all the lessons for me to feel contented with
what I have, and what I am today.He is like a fortress that I could hold on to
if ever I'm in need, like a stronghold perhaps.My mother is not a flyer like
Wonder woman but she assists me every morning for me to get to school, she worries
for me when I get sick, from morning until dawn, still, she's there for me
every time I couldn't sleep. She's an all around worker, I just can't help but
wonder how she could do all that so flittingly.Tony Stark, also known as Iron
Man has his riches and his super armor, my brother doesn't have all that but he
started to work early and somehow even help our family financially, he is my
confidante with my more informal activities and he is so overprotective over me
to the point of resembling and armor engulfing myself.
My reasons may come out as little things but that is why
they became my heroes in the first place. Those little things containing more
love and care and compassion. I would become a hero myself who will weave and
sew all these little things as long as I can, to the best way I can because I'm
going to be your friendly little neighbor, Spider man! Or is it Spider girl?
