Three Heros

During my life i have encounter many people, but out of those people only a few have made a difference in my life. These people seem like normal people and live normal lives. But they have changed me and the way i look at different things. My hero's are my sister, Kim, and my Dad. A hero is defined in the way the lead there lives and how they help others while being themselves. In the following paragraphs are the reasons why they are my hero.
My sister, Lisa, is my hero because she was always looking out for me and making sure i accomplished my goals. She also taught me how to be my own person even through peer pressure. Lisa has always been my go to girl when i didn't know something or i needed help. She told me that no matter what i will be something great. When she went to the navy she apologized to me for not being able to be here now because we had a bond that most sisters don't have. It was almost like we were best friends that always had a sleepover. She is becoming the person that I expected her to be.
My dad is my hero because he always provided for our family no matter what he had to do at work. He works all day long at the mill, then comes home and is a great father to his daughter. He also go and helps out his friends that need him to lift or just need some where to stay. My dad taught me how to fish, hunt, and be a tom boy. He has always been there for me to cry on his shoulder or just vent about all the high school drama. I admire that he puts me before his work.
Kim is my hero because she has been the only person who is consistent throughout my life. She started raising me when she was twenty years old, and i was five. She taught me how to clean, be a mom, and how to be a professional. Even though she decided to leave my dad, she has never stopped being there for me. She is always there when i need advice or i just want to hang out with her. I admire the way she juggles her life, with bills and keeping the house in order and having free time to have fun after work.
Even though to you these are just ordinary people, to me they have impacted how i act and the person i have become today. Plus they have all stood behind me with every decision i have made. That is what makes a true hero.
