Many of us will name the characteristics that make a person more capable, intelligent, kinder, and more than the average human being if asked to define the word hero. Many of us will name the characteristics that make a person more than average human beings. They are the people who give when they have nothing to give. Heroes perform before anyone else knows there's a problem. They volunteer to bring someone else before them.
Our heroes may be the first responders who save us from a dangerous situation. They may be a mentor, like a parent or a teacher. Heroes lead us through their examples as role models and heroes. They live their lives in such a way that we're proud to know them and want to follow their example.
And heroes, true-life heroes, are rarely acknowledged. That's why National Hero Day encourages you to recognize the heroes in your life.
