Do We Need A Hero?

I don’t think our society necessarily needs a hero; it needs more people with hero-like qualities. Although a hero would be great, it would just make more “villains” out of the people that don’t like him/her. I feel like a hero would cause more jealousy in society than happiness because the everyday people wouldn’t get the recognition they deserve. If someone did something amazing like risk his/her life to help a lady out of a burning building, would he get the credit for it? Or would the credit go to the hero that put out the fire after a life was saved? Not everybody would agree with the hero, causing more trouble or chaos.

You don’t have to be a superhero to be considered a hero. The everyday normal person could very well be a hero. People who are brave and risk their life or safety to help others are also heroes. It takes a lot of courage to go out of your comfort zone and put yourself in danger to save someone else. Some qualities that could make you a potential hero are bravery, courage, attentiveness, standing up for what you believe in, going out of your way to help others and many more.
