The Hero

"A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to preserve and endure in spite it overwhelming obstacles." -Christopher Reeve ("Superman")                                                                          This quote is talking about normal people who can be hero's on a day to day basis even though they themselves can be going through obstacles. Yet they still choose to help others in need because they have the strength to be there for others when they need them. My personal opinion on this quote would be to agree because ordinary individuals can be heroes without even realizing it. The reason I agree with Christopher's quote is because you honestly can be a hero for example a few years back my neighbors 3 year old had a candy in his mouth and he started to choke and his mother started to panic and didn't know what to do and started to scream for help. My dad was outside at the time with my sister and I and he runs to their house and took the candy out of the little boys mouth and saved him. The mother was so happy she kept on saying thank you for saving my son. All my dad said was its no problem I used this example because my dad is just an ordinary working man and he saved a 3 year olds life.
