Kids consider fictional cartoons and characters as their hero. Some of these known examples are batman, superman and even Ben 10. Common teenagers now a days, likes anime and TV personalities. I experience it myself because I like anime. Let’s face it, it’s a growing factor but in reality heroes are extremely different. They don’t have to kill, fly round and use laser beams and stuff nor transforms into an alien by an awesome watch! All I’m saying is that all people around us are heroes and one of my favorites is of course my parents.
A lot of traits and characters describe the heroism of our parents so here are some.
Enthusiastic means full of interest right? So I started out with this word because this drives them to have a great living. They have attention on money and opportunities on how to get a lot of that. It’s for them to sustain our daily needs.
Never giving up. If they are full of enthusiasm, then they will never give up if they really want to. Let’s say, a child needs to go to school but his/her family is at the verge of bankrupt, his parents will never say never on their child’s education.
Disciplinarian. Like a P.O.D, every parent has their rules. This helps us cope to the community properly decorum so we will never be embarrass. If they ever get to strict on something, lets understand them because they only want the best for us.
Ever loving. Wanting the best for us shows how much they love us. A loving mom and dad are usually protective and support us on our life. They have so many ways on how to show they love us.
Always Sacrificing. This is another way of showing love and heroism. In ancient times, a sacrifice means a lot, it can be a life, bloodshed and things seen in battle but today, time and effort is the best way to express sacrifice as one of the conducts of a hero. All moms and dads do this.
Valorous. Being valorous doesn’t only mean you have to enter a battlefield or wield a sword a gun it means to take the risk in every situation. There is nothing special with courage that’s why everyone has it.
Observant. They always want to know what’s happening to us. They often ask serious questions when we get home but sometimes they observe us without asking, it’s a way to know whether we are doing the right thing or not.
Representative. You might be thinking why this word includes in the traits right? My idea is that, our parents represent God’s love here on earth. God sends his way of loving through our parents! That’s why I’m so thankful to Our Lord God for giving me such wonderful and heroic parents.
Well, that’s ma’s and pa’s E.N.D.E.A.V.O.R. Give it a try! Add your parents to your hero list and God will like it.
