> What makes a hero? ... Can you be heroic simply based on attitude-say you're in a bad situation but you never complain about it?

As part of a preference to keep words strong, I wouldn't call people heros based on attitude. I'd call them longsuffering, dedicated, gracious, and such. Basically, for "hero" I like what might be a child's image of a hero, someone strong, good, and brave who does uncommon great things.
