Heroes are made, by circumstances, because nobody wakes up, and think to her/himself: I’m going to risk losing my life to save someone today!
Heroes are made, and, every once in a while, the heroic deeds of saving someone else get brought to the open, and, people would, ooh and ahhhhh, and, commend the individual, for risking her/his own life to save others.
Heroes are made, and there’s still, a shortage of heroes, because we all need saving from time to time, and, because there aren’t that many heroes out there available, to come to ALL our rescues, we’re forced, to save ourselves.
Heroes are made, and, sometimes, they’re made out as heroes, but, they’re also, every day people, like you and I, it’s just, that in the moment of decision, they’d decided, to put their lives on the line, to save someone else’s life, they’d disregarded their own wellbeing, and focused on helping someone out…
