Tom+Jackson

//**Tom Jackson**//

Living in an environment where people are interdependent helping others should come naturally. Many people only help others for external rewards, but others feel the need to help people who aren’t necessarily able to help themselves. I feel that when someone is in need of help and there is nothing they can to that if someone else is able to help them that they should. People should help other not for rewards but because it is the right thing to do. People who help other people are truly genuine and I feel that everyone should have the heart to help others. I would consider Tom Jackson a hero and also a role model. He is a hero because he helps many people and has done a lot of things to help other like charity work. I believe that he is a role model because he has proven that no matter what you have or where you like you can make it anywhere in life that you want. He lived on his own in the back streets of Winnipeg for seven years and now he is a singer, actor and mentor. I believe that when we read about people like Tom Jackson that it pushes us to show our ability to be a hero and role model. -Hailey
