My conqueror

                There were many called heroes now in our community. It’s easy for us to call someone a hero because of the good things they have done. But why do we call them a hero?

          In our country the Philippines, our Philippine National hero is Dr. Jose Rizal. We called him as our National Hero because he was the one who opened the eyes of our fellow countrymen to fight for our freedom to live and rule on our very own country. He used his skill in writing the Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo to tell our fellows that our country is ours and he mentioned in his writings about the cruelty of the Spaniards that evade our country before. Even though he was executed at the Luneta Park this started the revolutionary to fight for our freedom. But it’s not always that someone has to die to save many or one.

          In these days someone is called a hero if someone had invented something that helped many in their living. We also call the policemen as a hero for they save lives. They risk their lives to save and attain peace and order in our country. A fireman, who also save lives during fires etc. but can we consider our teacher and parents as our own heroes?

          For me its yes. Teachers were the founders; there are no policemen or firemen etc., which save lives of people if it is not because of them. They are the one who taught these people to be good as what they are now. Our parents who gave life to us. We are not here if it’s not because of them and the will of God. When we are still young I can consider that our parents are our heroes. They had sacrificed a lot for us and there’s nothing that can be them. For they are our own heroes that helps, guides, and loves as us for who we are. They are our hero, they are my conqueror.
