Super Heros DO Exist!

I think humanity has always wanted to escape from their reality and literally fly away, at least I have. Since I was little I would watch superman with my Dad because it was his favorite show. I liked it even more when Wonderwoman got in the picture because I though it was awesome for there to be a storng powerful women. As I started to get older, more shows and movies about super heroes were born, and the more I liked them.

I remember when I watched Superman for the first time. I was in my cousin’s house in Chicago and he forced me to watch it because he was obsessed with it. When I started watching it I couldn’t stop. I thought it was the best movie ever because it showed regular people being a super hero. This got me thinking if super heroes could exist. My parents would look at me with a weird face but I didn’t care, because I thought about how crazy the Universe was that why couldn’t a super hero exist? Anyway this thought was crushed by the bullying I would receive from my cousins, but still I always thought  it was pretty cool.

After listening to what the woman had to say about wanting to be wonderwoman I realized I wasn’t alone. Although she was more obsessed than I was, I was still a part of the fan club. She wanted to be like wonde rwoman so badly that she applied to be a CIA agent because it was the closest she was going to get to be that strong and powerful woman. Unfortunately she was rejected, but I still keep on thinking that if you actually want to be a super hero you can. If you want to help people, volunteer or work somewhere where you can have a positive direct impact on someones life.

 

For example, my role model, Catalina Escobar was a candidate to be a CNN hero for her amazing foundation that helps teenage pregnant girls that live in the povery of Colombia. This is what motivates me to still want to be a “super hero” because I realized that you don’t need to fly or become invisible to be one.
