November 10th is known as The National Heroes Day in Indonesia. And on this day, people usually hold a ceremony to remember and pay respect to all the heroes who died defending us and bringing independence to this country.
Right now, there's no war nor colonialism and Indonesia does already have its independence. But this country still needs heroes. It doesn't mean that a hero has to be someone who died covered in blood in a war. As an author, Ash Sweeney told: "I've learned that heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences." Heroes are people who stand up for others, speak for others and do something meaningful to help others

I just met one of those heroes today, a woman who dedicated her 23 years of life to provide education for children in need around her area. She might be not a hero which the whole country knows, but she is indeed a hero for those children.
