Does being a hero make you a better person?

Okie Dokie, I need help on this project. You see, I have my whole research essay to do and I'm doing it on the topic of, " Does being a hero necessarily make you a better person?". For those of you who have taken Gen. Lit. it's the whole big 18 paragraph thing composed of 3 separate essays. So I need some help brainstorming. I was wondering can you help me on:

1. What defines a hero? Is it the capes or the masks? Or is it the selfless choice to sacrifice comforts for the benefit of others. Of course you make this choice with a good moral understanding too. ( Hitler's morals were messed up I believe)

2. What makes a hero so different from a villain? Okay. anyone remember this quote? " You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain." What makes a hero become a villain? Pride, to much Power, messed up morals, obsession?

3. How does being a good person make you a hero? I don't know about this one I might not use it.

4. Who was the Sir Percy, inside? well obviously he wasn't the dumb man he pretended to be, but he wasn't always the super, life-saving hero all the time either. What were his reasons to save people? In the book it said his intentions were to do it out of enjoyment, see that's the part I don't get.

5. Was there an obsession problem with Batman? Was he a slave to his Job? Did obsession take over his moral reasoning? If it did what did he obsess over? What were his motives? ( besides the fact that his parents died and he didn't want that to happen to anyone else) Christian can you help me on this one?

6. What is the cost of being a hero?


yup, I need help... THANKS!!!!! oh and I also found this quote : ,

" A hero is a individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwelming obstacles."
- Christoper Reeve ( I know this doesn't work for the whole definition thing cause well Hitler persevered in spite of overwelming obstacles too.)

How to get what you want for the cheapest prices

ok so I was at the mall last night trying to find a TOTALLY PLANED gift for my brother's b-day right. After I bought the present, I had about 4 bucks left. Knowing that Gabriel likes candles, I went into the candle shop. I asked the nice person if he had anything under 4 bucks. He said ," We only have floating candles but I know what it's like to be broke ( I'm not broke) so I'll sell you a mini jar candle for 2.50 ( the original price was $10) I was like 0_0 SWEET =]! Then I told him it was my brother b-day and he gave me stickers, a box, wrapping tissue and some ribbon. ( I think there was supposed to be a fee for that)

So after I had bout' 1.50 left so I went down to the chocolate shop and I asked if they had anything under a buck. The nice college student behind the counter told me the cheapest was 2.50 so I tried to act desperate and I asked how much the total cost would be with tax. Then she looked around and whispered , " Just pick which one you want and give me what you have I'll sell it to you , this stuff is overpriced anyway. I was sooooo HAPPY!!!! Next time I go to the mall I'll take with me only 5 bucks!

Tis' Love That Makes Us Happy

Ever remember singing that song while growing up?

"Tis love that makes us happy,
‘Tis love that smooths the way;
It helps us mind, it makes us kind
To others everyday"

Sigh...its so fun to spend time with family... I mean it makes you feel all smarely and happy inside. God is good. Indescribable good. =] This weekend we went to a christian convention and the last speaker said something that caught my mind. He said to always strive to put a smile on God's face. He said not to worry if we mess up horribly. Just try to put a smile on God's face. He told the story of how he woke up on father's day. His two daughters came running in with a homemade ticket inviting him to a private fathers day show. Although the show was not perfect and his daughters weren't professionals, the joy he received from watching them try was incredibly great. We can make God smile. It doesn't matter how many times we mess up, God will always love us. God will always help us along, so don't be afraid to try to put a smile on God's face. =] The joy you yourself will receive is also =]. God is Love. Tis' Love that makes us happy....
