Dreams more powerful than fact

My Heroine
My hero is my big sister Tessa. I love her with all my heart and she’s always there for me, she is my sunshine, my faith, she is my sister and I will always love her.
A hero is someone who makes you happy and lets you be your true self. A hero is also someone who saves the day and a hero is someone who is nice and a hero is someone that makes you laugh. A hero is a great person. Everyone can be a hero. You can be one too. Everyone has a hero, don’t take advantage of that fact,
Destiny.
- by Kaitlyn McDowell February 3, 2000
