Essay On My Real Hero

Improved Essays
"The real hero is measured not by the size of his strength, but by the size of his heart". When I was a kid a lot of people asked me who my hero was and I often responded with a name of some celebrity who performed a cool stunt or had strength. As time passed by and I started understanding things, I understood hero is not someone who has strength, power, skills. Infact hero is someone who has a bigger heart, someone who has more love to give than strength, or someone who is skilled on thinking for the good of others. A hero can be recognized by the work he has done, by the sacrifices he has made, and how he changed the life of a different person and that is exactly what my dad did, He changed my life. He is My Hero

He literally gave up everything and came to a new place and he still managed to be happy and have a little smile on his face. Before we left Nepal, My dad gave our house to his uncle who was less fortunate, he could've given that house to any of his sister who lived in different city and they could've sold it and get the money but instead my dad gave it to him and when I asked him why he chose him instead of his own sister he said, " I also had little when I started, and I always wished that I had some more, and now they need it more than my sister does" and that act was not just in Nepal but it continued here, he is always looking for a way to help less fortunate, he even donates to a charity in Nepal which looks out for orphan children.
In conclusion, a real hero would change someone's life by sacrificing his happiness, making hard decisions and that is what my dad did for me, therefore, he is my real hero and he will always be. I don’t know how successful I will be in my life, or where time will take me but I will never be able to repay what my dad did for me, Thank you1q dad. If you have the chance to change someone's life, do it. Smile at someone, compliment them, and hold the door for them.

    I have never thought of a hero being just a regular person with a talent and a kind heart until I heard of Tyler Joseph from the band Twenty One Pilots. Whenever you have to make a choice, he says there will always be the easy route. That is the route that can give you what you want right away. But in the end, that’s the wrong choice.

    Some people do not know that they are even someone’s hero. When a person has the power to stand strong and fight for what they believe in they too can be a hero.

You do not have to have super powers to save someone, you do not have to be in a position or a career where the main goal is to save someone’s life such as a doctor, a policeman or a firefighter. Heroes can be everyday people, such as a teacher; who teaches kids the everyday essentials of life to grow and be a better person, a parent; who guides and raise their children and protect their children, and even a janitor or trash man; people that help keep the environment clean for our safety and…
