Heroes Are Made, Not Born
A hero is someone who is considered to have great decision-making power, who knows how to keep his ego aside while helping or supporting others, and who demonstrates good behavior throughout his life. Such a person knows how to inspire others with his actions, how to help people achieve success and how to develop deep or strong connections with everyone without any discrimination.

Even in the toughest situations, the hero knows how to keep up the spirit and how to maintain his integrity.
Honesty is yet another feature of a hero. In The Hero's Journ...
