Threaten someone with the banana gun - EverydayHero to the rescue

How do you actually define a hero?
Is it an everyday-hero who picks up your wallet when you drop it, so you won't lose it, or is it firefighters, who save people from burning buildings and save lives?
Or is it those in the movies. They have super powers, they're invincible, strong and almighty?

The meaning of the word 'hero', depends on what that one person have done.
Let's say you save someone from drowning, pulls up the person from the water, gives mouth to mouth and saves a life, the person wakes up and calls you a hero for saving his/her life.
Or is that a saviour? You just saved someone from dying. Savior or hero?
Nowdays, we know that there is nothing supernatural, there's no superheroes in the world, no one can fly.
So the question remains: Who is a hero?

I'd say that everyone is a hero, it's just that there will always be someone better.

Greet the end

Some people just need some extra attention, barely that.
Sometimes they just need something little, that little extra thing.
I'm not talking about attention whores, they're way out of my league, but ordinary people you see each day... Ordinary, depending on how you see them.
Sometimes what seems to be the hardest thing to do, is the easiest there is.

Sometimes, a "hello" is enough to bring someone back on their feet.


Then again, why should we give a damn about people we don't know at all?
The odds are that you won't ever, in your entire life, likely to see that one person ever again, depending on where you saw him/her.
We're born selfish and lonely, and every creature in this world will die alone.
Even a dog, just before death, will crawl away to an empty place without anyone around, just to die there, alone.
Same would go for humans, it's just that they decide to fucking strap us to a bed and keep us alive until they realize you're either completely dead or old enough to let go of.
