STORIES

Douglas Holliday

by Nick from Pickerington

A hero to me is a person who is humble and courageous and does good things when they don't have to.

I don't think it is important to have a hero. I think heroes are important if you have one they can guide you and can help you be a better person. But, i don't think you have to have a hero, a hero is some one you look up to and try to be the same as. I think if people want to be original they don't have to look up to someone they can do their own thing.

Doug is my hero because he has always been there for me and has supported me through my life. I think he fits my definition because he is someone to look up to and he is courageous and humble and he does good things for people when they need help.

I think that my hero should be in a hero hall of fame because he has been there for me. When my parents got divorced he helped me feel better. I think he is a hero because to me he has all the qualities of a hero. He does favors and asks for nothing in return. I think he should be in a hall of fame because he helped me when no one else did.
