Essay on My Hero
Everybody has someone that they look up to, someone that inspires them, and someone that makes them want to be a better person. Most people would consider that person as a hero. Hero’s don’t always wear capes and fight off evil like you see in movies or read in comic books. Some heroes are just normal people. A hero is someone that has a big impact in your everyday life.

She always finds a way to make it through the pain or the struggles she
