My Hero

Do you ever ask yourself, who is your hero? We often think about our favorite artists,
actors, or a public figure. I would say that my best hero and inspiration is my father,
he has been a excellent figure for me since I was a child. He has done a fabulous job
with me and my siblings, he has shown everything I know basically. He showed me
how to drive, to walk, crawl between many others. Many people would think that
choosing our fathers as our leaders or inspiration is really cliche, which in reality they
have a point.

It may sound cliche, but it is the reality, they have been there with us all the time,
when we were born, when puberty started hitting us it’s effects. Among many other
things, they also have the purest hearts, our fathers wants us to succed in life. Not like
other friends of ours that when we are doing good, they start to feel envy for us and
get mad at us when they see us in a new car, when we get accepted in a good college,
or just hanging with new friends. Although not all of them are really friends, they are
still some of good friends.

But my main point is that although we go through times with our parent’s sometimes,
they are always going to be with us all our life, no matter what. I can see that my dad
has given all he can, so that I can have a good life, and I reslly appreciate it every time.
A parent who is really good raising their children, shows him what is good and what is
bad, is someone who is deserved to be called my hero, and for many other people
also.

I think every dad has the right to be called a hero, sometimes we don’t deserve them
as millennial childs, sometimes we are to ungrateful and don’t appreciate the effort
they’re putting so we can have a better future they had. Having us in a private school
with a high tier education, and with some other unnecessary expenses, is something’s
not all parents are willing to sacrifice for, and that is what I value the most. I can say
without a doubt that every father is unique in his own way, and tries to give their best
for us and our siblings.

In conclusion, my father is the best dad I could ever asked for and I’m very greatful
everyday of my life for having the privilege to have him with me and spending the
best time I can with him everyday. Maybe he won’t see this but he knows how much I
appreciate him every single day.
