To all real-life heroes,
From infants, to toddlers, to grade-schoolers, to teens, to young adults, to adults, we all have an image of who and what a super hero is. We picture someone strong, both physically and mentally. We picture someone who has an extraordinary super power that makes them stand out from the rest. We picture someone brave. We picture someone in a uniform, someone who wears a mask, or someone who wears a cape. Over the years I've seen a lot of superhero movies, and I have met a lot of people. I noticed that there are people out there in our world that are real-life super heroes. They wear uniforms, they are strong, they are brave, and they have an extraordinary superpower.
Most superheroes we see in movies wear masks or capes for the sole purpose of keeping their identity a secret. Take spider-man for example, he is covered head to toe in a suit to keep his identity a mystery. These superheroes don't want recognition outside of their uniforms because they don't want their duties to be seen as anything more than their job. All my superheroes, that's where your extraordinary super power comes in.
You work day in and day out. You work long hours, you work overnights. Sometimes, most of the time, you miss holidays with your families. You miss your baby's first birthday party, or first steps, maybe even their first words. You work these long hours to support and provide for your family. You work these long hours to help save people you have never even seen before. You are the real-life heroes people call on an everyday basis when they are in danger. You are selfless, trustworthy, compassionate, and courageous.
