My Number One Superhero

No it's not just batman, it's my dad

My Number One Superhero

Its about that time where everyone is starting school and the teachers are trying to find something to keep everyone busy instead of doing work, because who wants to do work the first few days of school?

Nine times out of ten you'll play the name game or get asked the most random questions about yourself, like what is the weirdest thing you've ever eaten?

My class was asked to think about who our favorite hero is. We went down the line naming off the usual, Batman, Spiderman, Superman, and so on. Well if you personally know me, I am a super Batman fan and I don't hide it. I love Batman. But Batman isn't my favorite hero, he is no where near as amazing as my number one hero.

My dad has, is, and always will be my favorite superhero.

My dad is my rock, I couldn't do life without him. He has been there through every broken bone and broken heart, he was always there to pick me up when I fall and encourage me to keep going. He taught me to drive a tractor before I could learn to drive a car, He taught me how to fish, hunt, and enjoy the outdoors. He taught me how I was supposed to be treated by a man and to never settle for anything less. My dad is one of the biggest role models I have in my life and I wouldn't want it any other way.

My dad is my superman, he will always be there to save the day and I can always count on him no matter what the situation is.

Its no secret that I am a daddy's girl, I've been wrapped around his finger since day one and that will never change.

Don't get me wrong, superheroes are cool as heck with the awesome superpower's, cool Batmobile's, the costumes, and you cant forget about the villains, because without them what would be the point of having superheroes?

My hero isn't a celebrity or a multi-millionaire, but he is a hard working man that I love more than anything. He has never flown in from the sky and saved me from an avalanche, but he gives me hugs and makes sure I know he will always be there to save the day. When I think about my hero, I think about all the little things in life that really mean so much, like a hug or a smile.

When I think of the word "hero" my dad is the first person that comes to mind. I look up to my dad and trust that he will help guide me in whatever direction is best for my future. I will never make major decisions without asking for his input first, I wouldn't even pick out my prom dress without him physically being there with me. When something good in my life happens my dad is the person I want to tell first, same when it's something bad.

I love my dad more than anything.

I cant imagine a world without the best man I have ever know.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
