ESSAY ON MY FATHER MY HERO 5 (600 WORDS)
Introduction
My father is not just my hero but an inspiration for everyone around. Besides being a great 
father, a good husband and an obedient son, he is a very noble human being. He treats 
everyone alike and does not distinguish between anyone based on their caste, religion or

social status. Everyone in our family, extended family and neighbourhood talks highly about 
him because of his extremely friendly and helpful nature. People come to him to seek advice 
as well as for help as they know he has the solution for every problem.
Always Ready to Help Others
Just like the heroes in the Bollywood movies my father is always ready to help everyone 
around. I still remember the incident when one of my father’s colleagues fell seriously ill my 
father supported his family wholeheartedly. His colleague’s family was not financially well 
off. He was the only earning member in the family. His parents and wife were not only 
financially dependent on him but also did not know how to deal with the hospital formalities 
and other stuff. My father helped them during their hour of need. He used to spend hours in 
the hospital helping his colleague’s family with the hospital formalities. He also arranged for 
money for his colleague’s treatment. He contributed whatever he could and requested his 
other office colleague’s to contribute for the cause. He served as an inspiration for others. 
Many of his colleagues came forward to contribute their bit for the treatment. Soon, the 
funds were met and the treatment was completed. I remember the day when that colleague 
and his family visited our family after his recovery and thanked my father with all their 
heart. This incident has left a mark on my heart. I feel proud of my father whenever I think 
of it.
My father has taught me how we must be ready to help those around us and how a little help 
from us can make a difference in other people’s life.
Another quality of my father that I truly admire is that he is very hard working. He is 
appreciated for his hard work and dedication at work. He won several awards during his 
school and college days and this inspires me to work hard and earn appreciation too. Even in 
his office he has won the employee of the year award, most hardworking team member 
award and many other accreditation. I have seen him working for hours whenever his work 
demands. At times, he even works on holidays. However, this does not mean that he ignores 
his family and gives priority to his work. He knows how to maintain work life balance and 
we love this thing about him.
Many of my friends share that their fathers are extremely engrossed in their office tasks. 
They come home late from work and also have to go out with colleagues on the weekends. 
But I am lucky that my father values his personal relationships as much as his work. He does 
not take his family for granted. He makes sure he comes home on time and spends time with 
us. He also takes us out regularly. Besides, he helps my mother with small household tasks to 
share her load.
Conclusion
My father is very clear about the fact that family comes first. So, even though he is always 
ready to help others and is extremely dedicated towards his office work he does not ignore us 
in the event. He in fact, involves us in many of his tasks instead of leaving us behind waiting 
for him. This helps in two ways. We stay close to him and also learn from his good deeds.
