#7 my HERO

Idols like superman and all other men are distinguished ‘worldwide’ particularly, but what we People and specifically Youth of the present generation fail to recognize are the real heroes that we encounter every day. We even ignore every so often the stranger who just told us “Hey watch out, your wallet was almost stolen.” We were actually shaded by the smoke in the city and by the lights on the streets that lead us to failure of knowing who really are the real supermen that deserves our applaud and honor.

I really like Dora the Explorer; she doesn’t miss a thing because she searches for it with her friends and instantly figure out the way. She is indeed a hero of herself and friends and family. But what changed my sentiments for Dora is when even our only Television set was sold for we can’t even have a food to eat. It came to the point that the whole family starves because stores won’t even accept credits anymore because they had enough of our excuses. I belong to a poor family where the mother is a plain housewife while my father is jobless. We had no other mean of where to find money so my father knocked at our neighbor’s heart and begged for money to borrow. We were actually desperate for lives were what at staked that time. We were indebted at almost all nearest relatives we have.

Kei lent my father money to use without hesitant and told my dad that he would look for a job for him because he had already figured out that the money was not enough. It was actually obvious that it is impossible for us to pay the money borrowed because dad does not have any work. Father attended the interview from the company were Kei was working as a Custom. With a recommendation from Kei, father was hired and there it all started the friendship between the two men. Slowly we had paid for all the money we scrounged. I continued studying and came to know who my real hero is. The one who ought to have my admirations is not Dora after all. He lived Next Street a decade ago. My hero was a stranger who immediately became closer than the relatives we had.

We retrieved back our TV set and deliberately reclaimed all appliances we sold. With the help of God in the person of SALIC DIMAKUTA we were salvaged.=))
