A Hero With No Super Powers nor Capes

hero (hir’ō) n.

1, a man admired for his courage, fortitude, prowess, nobility, etc.

2, the principal male character in a play, story or poem.

Heroes? I know that most of you will think about cartoon characters like Superman, Batman and etc. those who wears capes, under wears on the outside and masks. Heroes also have super powers.

But do you really have to have super powers and the amusing suit to become a hero? No. nowadays, we have the so called modern day heroes. They don’t wear the suit and they also don’t have super powers. They are almost everywhere! It can be your neighbor, your classmate, the mailman, it could be anyone. By helping someone in your own way, you are already a hero to that someone.

My modern day hero is no other than my mom. She has a unique power. Yep, she does. The power to love and care for us. Her never ending patience, her hard work and etc. She’s  really a hero. She can also do 2 or 3 things at the same time. How awesome is that? She is also the greatest model I know.

I am so blessed to have a mom. A mom that is a hero for us.
