Hero- A hero is someone who you can look up to and someone who you know that can love and protect you. Yes, we need heros because when you are in a situation where a single person can't fix themselfs, someone has to be there to help. My heros have to be my friends because I can basically trust them with my life and I know they'll always be there for me. My family is also my hero because they know when to make me laugh and feel better.
