Who is your hero?

[sherryinutah]

Just finished reading the RIP Rodney King post where someone mentioned that he's a hero.  A couple of other FC folks questioned why someone would give him that title.

Do you have a hero?

If so...who is it?  Why is that person your hero?

I have my own personal hero.  He's a friend who has been there for me when I didn't want to ask for help.
He was there for me the day I had my tonsillectomy in April and he picked up pain medication for me.
He's there for me through the good, the bad and the ugly.

My hero has long passed. His name is Ronald Reagan.

My Mommie!!  She has been there for me when I had my first son (16), there when I had the second son (23), when I lost my husband 4 years ago, and now still there for me.  She is my wings and the Lord is hers.

I have many heroes and role models. The only one I actually knew was my grandfather, and he passed away a long time ago. He was just such a kind, modest, christian person. He would do anything for anyone if it was for the good. Just like every human though he had his flaws.

I would also consider Ghandi, MLK, Tupac, Abraham Lincoln, our founding fathers, and Jesus Christ heroes. Once again they were all human, the important thing about heroes is to try to take on their good qualities and throw out the bad ones.

"j.c." was no more a "hero" than Adolf Hilter was, (after selectively 'throwing' "out the bad qualities").

Wow, you liked "Bedtime for Bonzo" THAT much?

Those people who protect our country and our family are my hero

My hero is my father. He taught us to be proud of everything we accomplished regardless of how insignificant.

I have more than one hero. Theyre the ones who help me get by everyday

[candyterrius]

I don’t have anybody I can rely on except for myself. I can’t expect everyone to owe me so I would say my inner strength (wisdom if any) is my only true hero.
