My
Greatest Hero
Have
you ever thought of what a true hero means? When children say hero, they
usually mean a cartoon character like superman, wonder woman and other
spectacular mind made creatures that they’ve watch in television. Other people
think that a hero is somebody who can do exceptional things if not everything
for them. For me, my definition of a hero is someone who inspires, helps the
less fortunate and overcomes personal obstacles.
About 7 years ago, we’ve lost the
protector and provider of our family, my beloved father. That year was so hard
for us and didn’t know how to start a new life without him. Without my dad,
everything seemed to fall apart. But for my mom, being a single parent to the
family was even harder. Even if she didn’t told us, I felt her true feelings
that she needs to sacrifice to be apart from us for our better future. My mom
is an overseas Filipino worker until now and the sole breadwinner of our
family. I know that she loves and misses us so much and visits us every year to
bond with us. She took us to many countless places and I will never forget any
of them. My mother is also caring and she encouraged us to do well in school
and at home. She always listened to my problems no matter what they are and
always there when I needed someone to talk to. She’s the one person in my life
that I could trust the most and who understand me well. She advises me of how
to solve any problem that I encounter. She keeps telling me not to step down
the stairs of life but instead, I have to climb the stairs towards reaching my
dreams and goals in life. I won’t be able to make it today if she had never
taught me all those lessons of life. My mom loves me ever since she carried me
and she always will be for the rest of her life.
I’m very fortunate that my mom is a
strong, a brave person and is willing to keep the family together. She is
always trying to help others in their time of needs. She’s the best mother that
i could ever have. My mother is a wonderful woman and she’s my greatest hero.
