my hero

i think a hero is someone who holds sumperhhuman qualities, but isnt 'superhuman' themselves. i mean what good is a superhero thats made up or unreal. how do they help? in my own opinion my dad is a hero.he may not be built like an action figure, have a chiseled chin, and nice superman outfit on but what makes him a hero in my eyes is his super human strength and his will power to do anything. he has a high pain tolerance, just like the superheros you hear about in comic books or cartoons. me and my dad talk about a lot of things together and we share a special bond. i remeber the first time i looked at him as my hero was when he was able to show me his weak side. i seen one tear drop and then another. it almost killed me to see how much pain he was in since ive never seen a man cry or be in so much pain, and becasue it was my dad it hurt a lot more, but then it hit me, only real men, real 'strong' men...real superheros have a weakness, and being able to express that and deal with it not only showed that he was human but a real super hero. i dont know why that was such a big deal to me but seeing a tear fall from his eye was..i guess becasue people always say men arent supposed to cry, that it makes you weak, i feel in turn it does the opposite becasue it shows that one, your comfortable with who you are as a man, and two that your are human.
my dad is strong and courageous and never backs down. he keeps his word ans sees that everything he says will be done is. he provides me with love, support, honesty, trust, and friendship. superheros are there for you when the water gets deep and the trouble keeps coming, and my dad is that hero for me. whenever i need him to be there for me, he comes to save my day!
