Those who serve and protect

I believe people are willing to give up their lives for others because growing up, they dream to be a hero. They are giving, kind and caring from the beginning of their lives. They are selfless and care for others. They are the type of people who would pull over on the side of the road to help another with car troubles. People who join the army may join because they want to serve and honor their country. They may also just want to defend their family and protect their home. Those who would rather defend themselves in a scary situation, are cowards and selfish. These are the people who even if they are wrong, will blame someone else for their mistakes. They are never heroic and rarely ever help anyone because they fear for their own safety and care about nobody but themselves. Who are you? a hero or coward?
