What does hero really mean to people? Heroism comes in variety of difference form. People determine hero by their action and accomplishment. To some society, to be a hero simply just being brave, for example, going into a wild and kill a forest pig. However, to some other society hero means more than just going into a wild and kills a pig. They picture hero to be buff, boldness in appearance and excellent in the form of art of hero. There are great expectation and tremendous demand to be a hero. Beowulf for example, is a legendary hero. He possesses the form of hero as in his appearance and also within him. There are many things he does, regard as a hero. One thing, he does as a hero is the slaughtering of Grendel; he helps the whole village by finishing Grendel, the hideous monster. Therefore, he is considered a hero.
The depiction of hero as Beowulf is well-known in American culture. Thus, everyone knows what to expect from a hero, and what actions he/she does as a hero. The one thing really great full about hero, Beowulf, is doing whatever it takes to save others. It takes a lot to be hero, like American founding father. They fight for America; they create laws for American citizens so people can live peacefully. This lead to another well known hero in American culture is Thomas Jefferson, American people consider him as a hero because he does whatever it takes to help American fight against British and writes an unforgettable document which known as declaration of independent. In the conclusion, the depiction of hero has great influence on people. Hero changes how people feel and react, in addition, people tend to copy the action of well known hero because simply they also want to be hero. But in this case, it is not easy to be a hero. However, if one has enough dedication and motivation to be a hero eventually he/she will become hero in one form or another. There is a question of how to be a hero in the right place at the right time. It is not necessary to be a hero in the right place at the right time. Hero is eternity. Having the gut and the true heart will sure become hero.
