To me Cheeseburgers are like little drops of heaven. He was 16 years old when he created the cheeseburger. Well the cheeseburger is the best thing in the world so without him it would be bad. I mean don’t eat cheeseburgers all the time. But when I do it is the best. I don’t know if he was a compassionate person but he is my hero. I know that just because he slapped a piece of cheese on a beef patty it doesn't make him a hero. But I think that Lionel Sternberger did a little more than

    Now some may argue that he was a hero because he died for his cause, “grandly gives himself and all he has to a righteous cause” (Douglass, 9), but that is not necessarily a heroic action. Do we call the suicide bombers on 9/11 heroes? No, we don’t. Just because someone dies for what they believe does not mean that they are a hero. Not by a long shot. Dying for something does not immediately make it a good cause.

    The Hero’s Journey is a basic template utilized by writers everywhere. Joseph Campbell, an American scholar, analyzed an abundance of myths and literature and decided that almost all of them followed a template that has around twelve steps. He would call these steps the Hero’s Journey. The steps to the Hero’s Journey are a hero is born into ordinary circumstances, call to adventure/action, refusal of call, a push to go on the journey, aid by mentor, a crossing of the threshold, the hero is tested, defeat of a villain, possible prize, hero goes home.

  • The Hero Of Mahatma Gandhi: A Hero

    What is a hero? A hero is someone who does a service to ones community even when staring death in the eyes. A hero is someone who willingly even when face to face with adversity does not quit. A hero can vary from the policemen who keep the streets safe to a preserver of the peace and prosperity to a political leader who helps secure the endowment of democracy to our his country and their posterity. Of all these type of heroes, I tend to believe that the heroes who preserve both peace and prosperity while helping end a deficiency of the human race such as racism is more inspiring, which is why, for my hero I chose Mohondas Karachamand Gandhi who is best known as Mahatma (good soul) Gandhi. Mahatma Gandhi helped uproot the tree of racism and even after being arrested multiple times, he, through both thick and thin, did not give up until his work was finished to a sufficient amount. Mahatma Gandhi may have been a lawyer, an humanitarian, a civil rights activist, legal advisor, and a nationalist leader, but he was most of all, a hero
