Heroes Speech

When I was a kid, my super hero was Superman, I course of admired him because I thought it would be cool to be able to fly and to have super-human strength, exactly the main reason why I a ilk(p)d Superman is because he helped people, no matter what. consort to Times Magazine, we have be coif a society that is centered on self, self-gratification, self-motivation, self-indulgence, and it has been a driving core in developed countries since decades now and as a result, we are witnesses to the slow death of the Hero.Today I wish to tell you a little bit about how we define what a hero is , what it takes to be a hero, and how you and I bathroom help refresh the effects of heroisme. So lets start with how we define what a heroe is. The definitions of a hero, according to El Libro de los Heroes says that A hero is a person noted for feets of courage and ability of purpose, curiously the one who risks or sacrifices his or her life, alone it goes on to say that its a person notused for special achievement on a particular field, such as the heroes of medicine.Basically, agreeing with the World Hero Association a hero is someone who for whatever reason or reasons does something for somebody else without thinking about themselves, personal gane, and in some cases personal endangerment . So who are these heros? I mean where are they? For real, where are they? Well, we see them everyday. Heroes come in all shapes and sizes, they are doctors, and nurses, and soldiers, firefighters and police officers, but they are also teachers, and mothers, and fathers, and care- pass offrs, and social-workers, and YOU, thats right, YOU.You have the authorization to be a hero, you have what it takes to be a hero. You see, comic books mostly represent exagerated heroes in capes with symbols, and give them super human powers to make them larger than life, but Im here to tell you that you jadet really urgency the cape, its just for show, and you beart really need the symbol. We w atch movies like The Lorf of The Rings, where, you know, we see all the action going on with the sword play but sometimes we dribble the hidden messages within that say you depose be a hero even if you think your irresolute and powerless, you dont have to jump over tall buildings.The news only highlights the tramatic acts of heroism like Hurricane Katrina or September 11th, this implies that in order for you to be a hero you must put yourself in danger. But that could not be farther from the truth. The turth is that ANYONE has the potential to be a Hero all you need are two factors One, you need opportunity. And two, you need initiative. So lets say that all of us in this way go out and start looking for those opportunities, and we start noticing things where we can give help, and then we start fetching that initiative.We could start the chain reaction that spreads the sparks of heroism. Heroism is a powerful thing. Anyone at anytime and has the potential to be a hero anywhere. They can be that person who helps that lady carry her grocers to her car, or the employ who stays posthumous to help a coworker get something done. These are the characteristics of a hero that we should all embrace and be free to make our own. We need to encourage heroic traits because it will benefit society as a whole, but ourselves as well in the process.At the Berkeley THDM there is an article called We can be Heroes and they wrap it up by saying If we loose the ability of imagine ourselves as heroes, our society will be cored for, but if we can re-connect with this ideals, we can create a connection with a hero within ourselves. So to sum up, the urban Dictionary defines a hero as someone admired for their achievements and qualities, but what is a hero for you?For me a hero is someone who touches our lives in a personal way and does not do it for themselves. Now more(prenominal) than ever we need heros, we need to be those heros. And if we start looking for those opportunit ies and start stepping forward and taking that initiative. We can make the difference. Heros come and heros go, heros die and some heros have grown old, for someone you know and someone you dont be that hero.
