I love my mum and dad, my wife, my family.
Like ren said my father and grandfather served during the
war and later in Korea. what they did was heroic so in my eyes they are a hero to me and thats what counts.
However to be a hero can be something very small to that person or something very large.
Academically it could mean something very different.
but could it be read that it is doing something without fear or feeling or thought for the greater good .
Are the two words very different hero and heroic?
