How do you describe a hero? Are they those who run as fast as lightning? Or maybe they’re those who can fly high in the sky? Brave, strong, kind-hearted, and a real savior – perfect words to describe a hero right? Maybe right now you’re thinking it’s impossible to find a hero in reality. But, what if tell you I already found one? And what if the one I’m talking about has been around you for years?

Brave. My hero faces all the challenges she encounters with all her might. May it be those hard-headed children she deals with every day? May it be those tons of paperwork that she needs to finish? May it be those personal problems she has to solve and not letting it affect her duty? Those endless challenges she conquers in her everyday life! It’s amazing how she does everything easily.

Kind-hearted. She does and loves her duty whole-heartedly. She gives help to others by sharing her knowledge and expertise. She can also be a pillow to hug and a shoulder to lean on whenever you need to. One word to describe her heart, it’s pure.

Most of all, she’s a real savior. She saves the youth from ignorance. She does everything to lead them to the right path. And most importantly, she helps them discover and reach their dreams and lights up the path to a brighter future.

 

 

 

Do you want to know who my hero is? Maybe now you’re wondering who I’ve been talking about. Like what I’ve said, she’s been around you for year! My hero? It’s my Teacher! After all the sacrifices they did to make us learn our lessons, it’s just right for them to be called a real hero. They have been our savior from a gloomy future. Without them, all of us will just be nonsense creatures not knowing where to go. And for that, we should salute them. Our teachers, our heroes!
