Ever since the coronavirus pandemic hit, the world has come to realize that there are other superheroes than what we read about in comic books or watch in movies. Superheroes who we see walk among us every day in uniforms, and who go out of their way to protect us. The world did come together to honor doctors and nurses who bravely faced the pandemic’s challenging times in 2019, but there are other real-life heroes who deserve recognition, too. In this article, we’ll talk in detail about these superheroes and why they deserve appreciation from us.
Doctors
Doctors have been there for us since the earliest days, but their services have never been more apparent than during the Coronavirus pandemic that recently hit the world. They served us night and day and spent hours away from their own families at this crucial time in history. It’s safe to say that their work goes beyond treating illnesses as they provide support to those in need and that no other profession requires such a deep commitment to the well-being of others. Doctors truly are our heroes who sacrifice their own lifestyles to save lives.
Soldiers
Let’s not forget the soldiers here. These real-life heroes deserve our appreciation, too. They put their lives on the line to protect their countries, and face life-threatening situations time and again. Some are deployed overseas while some gain training at home, but all soldiers dedicate themselves to keeping us safe, right? They sacrifice so that we can enjoy the freedoms we take for granted.
Police Officers
Unfortunately, when it comes to police officers, this profession is usually misunderstood, but they too are our everyday heroes. While it’s true that the world has its fair share of bad cops, that doesn’t mean we deny the fact of how they put their lives at risk daily to keep us safe. Cops go through uncertain situations and make split-second decisions to protect us and be there in emergencies. They maintain peace so one must also appreciate their dedication and the risks they take to make sure we stay safe.
In Conclusion
These are the real superheroes—doctors, soldiers, and police officers—who play vital roles in our lives. They go above and beyond to care for us, without much recognition. To learn more about the real-life experiences and challenges faced by those who serve, you might find Henry Traylor’s book, The Double Deuce, an insightful read. It offers a personal look into the life of a rookie policeman and sheds light on the day-to-day realities of those who protect and serve.
So, next time you see someone in uniform, remember that they might just be a superhero in disguise.
