Heroism-
heroic conduct; courageous action: Pat's returning into the burning building was true heroism.



Hero-
1.a man of distinguished courage or ability, admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities.

My view of a hero is anyone who does selfless acts that usually require a great deal of danger to help others or the greater good.
