Cherae Hicks: A Hero

Heroism is defined as "actions and qualities of a hero or heroine: great bravery, daring courage."

There are a bunch of heroes, for example surviving cancer patients, firefighters, and soldiers.

Firefighters are heroes. They save peoples' lives and risk theres for other people. They go into buildings bursting with flames and pull people out of them. Millions of people have been saved by a firefighter.

A cancer patient is also a hero. They are strong and they have fought for their life. A family member died because of cancer. He fought until he had to go. He talked to everybody to let them know he loved them. He is a hero because he was strong, brave, and didn't give up until he had to.

An outstanding hero is a soldier because they are amazing and they know that they risk their lives every day for our freedom. They watch people die in front of their eyes and do nothing, but we will always respect them.

All of these examples and stories tell you exactly what a hero is.
