Hero

written by: youkilis1188

I need a hero I have herd that a thousand times that is the cue for someone to step-up. A hero by my definition can be anyone and in any form but when someone says that who do you think of when you think of a hero? Is it a fireman, a police officer, army serviceman ect. Can be anyone but mine was my grandfather but he died in 01 I miss him dearly I wonder what he would tell me now. But I can only wonder once he died I saw for the first time my own father but out in tears to this day that is the only time I have ever seen him cry. My grandfather was the glue that held my family together. once he died it was gone. Now my dad has taken that role and he has tried his damnedest to live up to the expectations that my grandfather laid down when he died. But now when someone says I need a hero I know what has to be done thanks to my grandfather and my father the greatest people that I can look up to in life

So remember when someone needs a hero what will you do? something like greatness or nothing at all it is for you to decide choose wisely.
