My hero Nelson Mandela inspires me to do great things someday.
For many years Mr Mandela has spend  his life in prison , for
standing up in what he believe in .In order to be like Mr Mandela i
would have to be a strong person and stand up for what i beleive.
Nelson Mandela is a kind and good man which i have a lot of respect
for,and i hope someday people will look up to me.

My hero, Jesus Christ inspires me to do great things someday.
Although he came from a poor family, that didn't stop him from having
 a rich life. He aimed to turn people from their sins to God.
Unfortunately, achieving this meant sacrificing his own life.
Nevertheless he suffered and died for the wicked, evil sins of
mankind. Knowing he had limited time on earth, as we all do, Jesus
made the best of his life by sharing, healing and caring for the
sick, the wounded and the poor, physically and spiratually.He knew
what he had to do and he did it. He had a dream and he realised it, a
calling and he answered it, a great duty and he completed it. This he
did without doubt or failure but with total faith.

What Jesus did inspires me to try and make the best of my life. To
listen to God and others with an open heart and mind. I soon found
out that this isn't easy, but neither was suffering and dying on a
cross.

My hero Susan  Bromwell Anthony inspires me to do
 great things someday.
1)Susan fought for women's rights in the 1800's and is
   only one of the many women who have given women
   their rights of today.
2)I want to be like her because she was brave and not
   afriad to stand up for what she believed in.
3)I will have to stand up for what I believe and not
   let anything get in my way.
4)Susan Bromwell Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton
   fought for women's rights in the 1800's .Until 1920 women were
   not allowed to vote infact Susan and other women like herself were
arrested for trying to vote . Women hardly had any rights at all.
They usually married young and their property was automatically
transfered to their husbands name.

My hero Alison inspires me to do great thigs someday.
Two years ago Alison was taken into the outskirts of Port
Elizabeth,raped,severely stabbed,cut and left in the middle of
nowhere to die. But because of her tremendous inner strength she
survived and is helping other rape victims and making people (esp.women)
more aware of rape in our country.
I would like to be like Alison because she didn't sit around feeling
sorry for herself,she grew from her experience and is helping others.
I will have to believe in myself to achieve my dreams.
In conclusion,I'd like to end with a quote,"Achievers are ordinary
people with extraordinary determination."

My hero, Einstine  inspires me to do great things someday.

Einstine was more than just clever, he was a genius. By studying and
inventing, he helped the world by giving her knowledge. He invented
many things which helped to upgrade the living standard of many
people. He also wrote a large number of theories, which helped other
scientists to wided their knowledge. He also wrote many books which
were very populare and knowledgeable.

I would like to be like him because I would love to hold so much
interesting knowledge, and be able to help people.

If I wanted to be like him, I would have to study very hard. But he
was also born a genius, which unfortunetly I wasn't.

I think that Einstine  made many break throughs and helped the world of
science take a leap in the right direction.

consitution.Evita was a person of great faith and in her short life
she fulfiled her greatest dream.I want to be like her because she
fought for her rights and she made her dreams come true.I have to
fight for my rights and the rights of all humankind to be like her.Evita
was a great
person and it was a shame that she had to die at such a young age.

has achieved complete control of his mind and body to the good of
others , I want to do this as well. To achieve this Iwill have to

my reach if I give the effort.

My Hero Mother Teresa inspires me to do great things one day.
She is so unselfish never for one moment thinking about herself.When
she had been admitted to hospital for a seriouse operation, a day
later she got up ,dreased and informed the doctor that she needed to
get back to work and God would look after her from now on.

Think of getting out of your comfort zone,and leaving family,friends
and every thing you know to go and work in the slums of India ,one of
the poorest countries in the world.Mother Teresa risks her life every
day ,without so much as a second thought,working with the sick and
homeless.

I can say without a doubt that Mother Teresa is one of my heros,and I
hope that one day that I can be as selfless as her.

My hero Jill Daniels(my cousin) inspires me to do great things one
day.
She is the president's bodyguard and contributes to the country by
protecting  president Mandela.
I would like to be like her because although she is a woman, she
didn't let the fact that it is a male dominated job stand in her way.
I will have to believe that i can do anything i want to do even if
the odds are against me.
I believe anyone can do  anything they set their mind to even if it
is something out of the ordinary like being a female bodygaurd.
