What is heroism? I'll tell you what it is: Risking your life for others. But it's also love. And giving.
Another question is- what tests heroism? A burning building. Two burning buildings. Three. Nothing else tests heroism like that. Nothing else provokes the feeling of the incessant Need to help others.
Risks accompany heroism. Risks like death. An unimaginable death. But along with risk is respect. And appreciation. Nothing else gives you respect like saving lives. Saving the lives of thousands of people.
You gain appreciation from doing what's best for others, When they need it.
But there is more to heroism. There is more than meets the eye. It creates change. It touches people's hearts, Urges them to change the world.
Then the world changes people. Will the world change you? When they need it.
