This is kind of trite, but my hero is my Grandma. She raised 6 kids with very little income. She got her GED when she was 50. She is incredibly active in her 80s - she can touch her toes (I can't) and gets up early every morning to do calisthenics and work in her garden. She's one of the most generous, kind people I know. And she's independent and stubborn as hell and follows her own mind.
