A hero

A hero is a person who displays high amounts of something. A hero has qualities that go above and beyond the average person. They may not be perfect in all areas of life, but they have something that sets them apart from the masses; something that attracts attention in a positive way. A hero is a person who can do something to make others watch with awe. They may be nicer than the rest, which, although is not the first thing one thinks of when they think "hero", really could be heroic to the object of their niceness. They could be very athletic, which would make them a hero to a young aspiring athlete. Or maybe they are courageous, which would make them a hero to the mother who stands outside the burning house as a crying baby is brought out safely in the arms of a stranger. A hero is a person who can, even if it is only to a single person, change the way someone thinks or views the world for the better.
