Heros

I was thinking about heros today, and I don't mean the Nissan Versa driving Hiro as good as that hero is ..
I was thinking of the many characteristics of a hero, what they do, what they represent and how they shape our lives..
I then started thinking of who my hero was..... do they wear a cape? are they a man? a woman? do they work? are they missionaries? explorers? scientists? ...
the characteristics of my hero are near and dear to my heart
she is loving
she speaks her mind
when she doesn't like something she will tell you
she is not afraid to stand up for the little guy
she is spontaneous
she is kind
she is artistic
she loves music
she is sweet
she has spent her entire lives being an individual
she is not influenced by the majority
ahe is happy
she is adventurous
she is fun loving
she cares for others
she is good with children
she is brave
she is strong
she is always forgiving
she loves the quiet moments
she spends time in contemplation
she is willing to try something new
she will share her last drink of water with you
she would give you the clothes off her back
I have known her for 10 years and every day I have known her I have been encouraged and challenged to be a better person...
she is my niece, she has special needs, she is my hero and I love her and am very proud she calls me Aunty
I love you Deebers
