Everyday Heroes

When you think of heroes you think of policemen, firefighters, doctors, nurses, or soldiers; maybe you think of comic book heroes. Sure they all do heroic things but there are Everyday Heroes too, heroic in their own ways.

I think of the young man who has a bad knee yet walks to work everyday; the young woman that struggles to get around even with her walker, but is so proud of her independence. There is the guy that is going to spend his whole day in a wheelchair but is the first one out of bed in the morning and the older gentleman that is 20 years older than normal retirement age but would not think of missing a day of work.

I could go on forever but I think I have made my point. These people are my everyday heroes. They are heroes not because it is their job, but because it is their life and they overcome these obstacles until they are no longer thought of as obstacles. Thank you for your inspirations.
