| When someone mentions the word hero, people picture Hercules, Batman, or even
Superman. You might picture a knight in shining armor riding into the sunset
with a beautiful woman along side. Some people picture the skinny models who
prance around in clothes and always look beautiful featured in Vogue, and Cosmo.
Other people picture the CEO of a top company, making over ten million a year.
Some might even picture an ex-president, or even their teacher. But when I hear
the word hero I don’t picture any of those things.
