Beowulf is seen as a hero

We face "epic" challenges everyday.  In the world today we faced with many challenges; everywhere you go and everything you do.  I think that some of my challenges could be caused by the choices I make.  I think by making different decision, possibly I wouldn't be faced with as many challenges.  I find myself asking "what if I would have thought that through more?"  Could that of changed things?  I feel that this time in my life I am faced with numerous obstacles and I know there are a lot more to come.  I have challenges coming up in my life that could change my life forever such as; graduation and picking a college that is right for me. I look at myself as one of those guys that won't back down from a challenge.  I'll face it head on.  If a challenge gets me down, I'm going to try and turn it around and prove that I can and will over come it.  My parent's have always told me, "there is nothing you can't do."  They always taught me to do my best and work hard, and "nobody can take that away from you."  That's why I feel when a challenge comes my way I can over come it.  I will always have the help and support from my family; whether it be my parents, brother, grandparent, aunts, uncles, and cousins.  They will be there for me during the good or bad challenges.  The one I know that will never leave me or forsake me is God.  I can go to him with anything and as long as I trust and believe in him, he will get me through each challenge.
