My Cliché Hero

     I remember back when I  was in middle school and elementary school, we would always have to write those really awful essays about our personal heroes and why they were our heroes. To me, I always disliked them because I felt that it was just too personal and it was always hard for me to find someone to look up to that I wouldn't mind talking about in an essay that the teacher would read. However, I can now honestly say that my true hero is my mom. Granted that is a little bit cliché, because a lot of kids always look up to their parents but I feel more than pure admiration for my mom. My mom does a lot for my sisters and I in different situations that often end up humiliating her. I feel like she has been through hell and back because of how my family is, yet she still keeps on moving forward. No matter the opposition, she is still standing and fighting for the rights that should be automatically given. I feel that she does way too much at times, but I am happy that she believes in my sisters and I enough to fight for us. I guess I just feel really proud of her and I hope that someday I can be someone that she can be proud to call her daughter as well as someone who can pay her back and make her happy to make up for the lost time.
