We hear the word hero all of the time. The news media throws the term around as if it is an everyday word. What exactly is a hero? Who, or what, can be classified as a heroic? The correct definition of the word hero is: One invested with heroic qualities in the opinions of others. That is a fine definition for books and intellectual minds. To the average person, however, a hero is much more. Everyone should look upon there parents as a hero because they make you what you are today. I choose my parents for lots of reasons, only a select few of which have I the space to describe here. The most obvious of these is that without them, I would not even be here. Beyond that, though, there are other things. Everything I believe in and everything I enjoy or dislike has to be linked to them in some way. The way they have brought me up has had a far greater influence on me than anything else this world has to offer. Some things about me I can link directly to my parents and not to anyone else. For instance, would I use computers today as much or have entered Seneca College for computers if my mom had not got me into computers at an early age? Her knowledge and patience got me interested in computers, as I wasn’t when I first got it.
Would I be such a fan of sports & soccer if my father hadn’t been one of the best soccer players in university back in the days in my country? If he hadn’t thought me fair play, and introduced athletics to me, helped me with them, let me develop in them at my own pace, and shown me that one must work hard in order to achieve and perform better, would I follow sports, or have the desire to put in the time running, practicing, and lifting weights that is needed to perfect the imperfections and become successful. I would never had joined so many high school sport teams and go back to my country every 4 years to watch the world cup with my dad and lots of my old friends if it wasn’t for my dad. Thousands of variables went into me becoming the kind of person I have become and only my parents could have manipulated those factors in such a way so that they interacted as they have. When I look at my parents I can see where I got my honesty, kindness, patience and hard working qualities that I have today. Almost all my qualities have come from my parents so I do not see a point to name them all.

Some aspects of my personality were present at birth and would have surfaced regardless of my parents, but the manner in which they arose is all thanks to my parents. For these things, children should look upon their parents as heroic people. I know I am a better person because of them.
