My hero is Bob Marley. He is an idol of mine because of the wonderful things he was able to achieve through the power of music. In Bob Marley 's career he spread love throughout the world with the use of his lyrics, he was shot and still performed, and was a devout Rastafari. For these reasons and many others he is someone I greatly look up to. His positive, peaceful, and loving outlook towards life, coupled with his music, has personally impacted me to see how beautiful life can be.
One blistering hot summer day I was out jet skiing on the Chesapeake Bay. A couple of my friends and I were out on the water having an amazing day cooling off from the hot sun. We spent the day swimming and making memories. Being out on the water is so much

I was treading water and looking off into the distance in awe because of the beauty that was being displayed all around me. I couldn 't stop smiling because at this moment I felt true happiness. While this was happening my friend Sam just looked at me and laughed. I said "Sam, what 're you laughing at?" He smiled and replied, "I love you man, this is amazing." Then he said, "Jack, I 'm about to tell you something." I was a bit worried because I didn 't know what my friend was thinking but I drew up the courage and questioned, "What 's on your mind?" He simply replied, "You 're pretty much a Rastafari." I almost died in laughter after Sam made this statement but he was completely serious. He went on to say, "Dude I 'm serious! You love reggae music and spending time out on the water and in the ocean. On top of that, you are the most positive person I have ever met, you are my best friend and I don 't think I 've ever seen you mad. You are always positive and loving, and the best thing is that you spread that love to others. Right now, sitting in this water, I don 't think I have ever been …show more content…

In my opinion, Dorothea Dix fits my definition of a hero because she not only did something to improve the life of one person, she improved the lives of thousands, without worrying about the consequences of her actions. That day when she went to teach Sunday school in East Cambridge, she could have done nothing about the terrible conditions that the prisoners had to endure. She could have chosen to ignore them. But instead, she let her courageous and nurturing ways take over, and she campaigned for the rights of those
Heroism Who is your hero? It may be your dad or, perhaps another family member, one that you have known your whole life as a hero. Maybe it is a fictional character. A person that you don't know or have never seen, but still you think of them as a hero.
This is where his passion to help began. He then wrote “Lift Every Voice and Sing”. This song touched many hearts around the world. It mainly struck the hearts of African Americans. This song was a voice for many African Americans who have went through a lot over the years.
If I asked you who was an american hero, who would be the first person you think of? I would automatically think of Jackie Robinson. Jackie Robinson is not only an american hero but also a hero for all of sports. His courage, wanting to be the first african american to play baseball, fighting for equality, and fighting for his country are all reasons he should be considered a hero.
The person I consider to be an influential hero is Moira Smith. I refer to Moira Smith as a hero because she saved many strangers’ lives. Her life was dedicated to saving citizens from disasters that had occurred. Moira had even saved victims in exchange for her own life. Most people cannot do such a selfless thing as to risk their life to save others’.
Jackie Robinson In my opinion I think a hero is a person that changes lives forever. My hero is Jackie Robinson because he is the first African American baseball player, first African American to win NL MVP, and the first African American to have his number retired. The first reason I think Jackie Robinson is a hero because he was the first African American to play baseball.
The chains that Jacob Marley and the other ghosts wear are important to the story, A Christmas Carol because Marley tells Scrooge that he has to carry chains in his afterlife. But Scrooge doesn't believe he is real. So, Marley sends three ghosts to make him believe in Christmas and to stop being a cranky guy during the rest of his life. Marley's chain is around him during his afterlife because he was a greedy man during his life. Marley was greedy because he didn’t want to give money, food, shelter, and way more the poor and homeless even though they need it.
“The good ole days weren't as always good, and tomorrow ain’t as bad as it seems.” Billy Joel went from an average class worker to a well know piano player. He impacted pop music by focusing on his piano, won multiple Grammys and awards, was inducted into the Songwriters and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, making him one of the most influenced pop artists in the 20th century. Billy Joel started music since he was a little little boy.
A man who done left his mark on life. On the way people cling to each other out of the truth they find in themselves. Then he showed me how to ger back to the road. I came out to where everything was its own size and I had my song. I had the Binding Song.

A hero for me is kind, generous, and respectful. My hero is Dwayne Johnson. He was born on May 2 1972. He is a film actor, professional wrestler, producer, and singer. Dwayne Johnson stands as a hero because he has helped foundation for kids, he helps people in the military,other people , and he is inspiring.
One of the best days of my life was when we went deer hunting in South Dakota with my dad, brother, uncle and two cousins, but before I tell you about my trip let me tell you how it started. We left early in the morning to head to South Dakota where my cousin Jacob, who had just got a job as Game warden in Custer State Park, was taking us deer hunting. We got as far as Fargo, North Dakota when my cousin Keith asked my dad where our license were. Then to our surprise we forgot them back at home. We were lucky enough to have my two aunts and mom bring us the license because they were going to Fargo that day anyways for a girls shopping day.
Finally my last favorite activity is being in the ocean. It was my first im in the ocean and it tasted bad. Anyway one of the days we went seashell hunting I stepped on a jellyfish but my shoes where on and then we ended up swimming in the water for like ten minutes. Another time we went on a banana boat ride to go parasailing.
Cliff Jumping at Smith Lake If you think jumping off a diving board is fun, you should try cliff jumping. At the end of the summer (2015) my family and I went to Smith Lake, Alabama. We had heard about this beautiful lake from some friends of ours who had went recently and loved it.
It all started on a summer day, I went to nags head beach with my family. We got a big beach house with my whole family and a few friends. This was about 4 years but it feels like it was just the other day. We went at the very end of the summer. It was still nice and warm outside.
