The Future Faces of Michigan When questioned, "Who is your hero?" most people answer, "My mom, my dad, or my grandparents." Some may even answer, "Superman!" I, on the other hand, would have a different answer. To me, a hero is someone who is always there for you, someone you can count on or turn to when times get tough. That is why I have 20 heroes, 20 people to turn to, and 20 people that will listen. They are the students in my class. Not only are they my heroes, but they are my best friends. Ever since second grade, I have had the privilege of attending school with these kids. Some of them have come; others have gone over the years. Now there are 21 of us, and we are the eighth grade graduating class of 2009. All of these individuals have stuck together and have stuck with me through the tough times and the great times. Our friendships have strengthened over the years, and this year, we are brothers and sisters. Everyone in my class has a distinct personality which makes them who they are. Their personalities make my class unique, and it is their personalities that represent the future faces of Michigan. These people are some of the most intelligent and caring people I will ever meet. Someone once told me that a state is defined by its citizens. I feel that this statement rings true for my class. These people that I have attended school with will one day define this state and design its future. When I look into the faces of my peers, I see politicians, business people, artists, writers, actors, musicians, and comedians. I love these 20 people; they are my best friends, brothers and sisters, my life. By having these marvelous people by my side in my formative years, I know I'll have the strength to face any challenge life may throw my way. They have, and hopefully always will, be with me. My friends will always have a special place in my heart, even when we grow apart. These classmates have made a tremendous impact on my life; I hope that I have made just as significant impact on theirs. In the book of John chapter 15 verse 13 it says, "Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends." To me, that is true friendship, and friendship defines a hero. Who are these people, and why are they my heroes? These people are students in my class, and not only that, they are the future faces of Michigan. With heroes like these, Michigan's future just has to be bright!
