Unexpected Inspirations
The greatest inspirations in life are unexpected and unplanned. They can define someone and change who they are as a person. These circumstances can also help someone grow into who they are meant to be. For example, my greatest inspiration was the birth of my son. Through gaining a child I have learned to put all my selfishness aside and place him above anything and everything. He is my reminder for why I work and further my education. My reason why I want to better myself and exceed above and beyond societies expectations of a young mother. Also he has matured me into the person I am today. The end of my senior year in high school I remember being unbelievably sick, not the normal cough and cold sick either. It was more of an unceasing fever, my body was in a constant cold sweat, and the only thing I could stomach was Chick-fil-a’s chicken noodle soup. Shortly after I went in for a doctor’s appointment where I was told I had a virus that would go away within a week. Two weeks after I was thankfully feeling better with an occasional nauseous sickness. A few days followed and my boyfriend at the time surprised me with a pregnancy test. He asked if I would take it to ease his nerves due to my symptoms. So of course I took it, though every inch of me was in a panic waiting for my result. I remained in the bathroom holding my test not allowing my eyes to wander from the little screen on the white plastic stick in my hands. With my eyes peeled a single
I looked for inspiration in many people. They are in my school, they are my friends, my family, and my favorite artists. I do not look to one person for a model of how I should be because I admire little things I notice in each person. For example, my dad, it would have to be his determination and his openness. One person that has had a huge significance in my life is Marina Diamandis. She is a big role model of mine. If you do not know her, she is the singer from Marina and the diamonds. I would describe her music as indie pop, and her songs are so meaningful to me.
A person who inspires me is Alex Smith. Alex Smith was the former quarterback for the 49ers. In one game he got hit hard and went down with a concussion. He lost his starting job and got traded. He inspired me that even if you get knocked down to just get back up.
People inspire me. The people who want to do well and make others feel good about themselves. For example, feminists who want everyone to have respect and the same civil rights regardless of gender, anti-bullying clubs, suicide prevention hotlines, and African American women who embrace the color of their skin and hair.
Most people would guess that a young teen like myself would be influenced the most by the hippest artist of today,the latest movie star, or maybe the team who designed the latest iPhone. Though they are very inspiring, I have been influenced by someone who is not in the twenty first century, yet his legacy and great contributions will go on for centuries. This individual is Charles Drew. Drew was an African American physician and medical researcher who made life changing developments in the medical field. He studied blood transfusions, developed effective techniques for blood storage, and applied his knowledge to develop a blood bank. Charles Drew is most inspiring to me because he was passionate, selfless, courageous,and stood
What's the first person you think of when you hear the word inspiration?Why does that person come to mind?Tyler Oakley comes to my mind.Tyler Oakley is ….He is also known as the “Queen of Youtube.”He was born in Detroit Michigan March 22,1989.Tyler also works with The Trevor Project (The Trevor Project is a nonprofit organization that helps prevent suicide among LGBTQ+ youth )
What or who is an inspiration? An inspiration is the process of being mentally stimulated to do or feel something, especially to do something creative. People throw around the word inspiration a lot, not knowing what or who a real inspiration is. A person who I think is a really big inspiration to me, and to the world is Michaela DePrince.
An inspiration, by definition, is someone or something that mentally stimulates a person to do something. Therefore, Jessica Lange is an inspiration to her fans because many people see what Lange does and who she is, and it makes these people want to follow in her famous footsteps. She is an American woman who had a great dream, and with hard work, she made it come true. This woman has had a very admirable life, in which she has overcome the obstacles of being a “nobody” from a very small town in Minnesota, living on her own, and dealing with the fame and publicity that is given to her. The ups and downs in her life never stopped her from pursuing her dream, which is one of the reasons why she is a role model to me and many others.
Inspiration is a strong word for a powerful feeling. It's a word that has been attached to great historical figures or grand, almost otherworldly moments and events, but as a society today, we use it too much and use it too lightly, almost to the point that it has lost its potency. But, that doesn't mean we've lost the meaning of the word or it can't be found anymore. As Leaders of the Pack touchingly documents, it can be found right in front of your nose and you may not even know of it or the person from which it came. It can be found in the lives of everyday people, living in some of the most extreme conditions, such as Alaska during the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race.
One of the first reasons why Donald Trump is an inspiration to me is because of his work ethic. On June 16, 2015, Donald declared that he was running for presidency. Many people thought that it was a joke so they all made jokes. Fast forward a year and a half and Donald Trump becomes President Donald Trump. Something else that shows that Donald Trump is a
Each and every one of us instinctively looks for inspirations. We can find it in any person who has everything we want in life or someone who is genuinely good by heart. When looking for inspiration, we don’t look at how our inspiration got to where they are today. My inspiration showed up one day while I was surfing Youtube. This man is someone who lives life to its fullest. He doesn’t let anything get in the way of happiness. Despite of his harsh childhood, he was dedicated, he found the importance in family, and found his own inspiration.
The person that was the source of my inspiration was Dr. Wayne Dyer. He was born in Detroit, Michigan and received his Ed.D degree in counseling from Wayne State University. In his early career begins he started as a professor of counselor education at St. John´s University; he focused primarily in motivational speaking techniques. After a few years he started then writing books about his theories becoming really famous, and then building a successful career with lecture books, series of audiotapes and PBS programs.
Inspiration is wanting to do something to be like your role model. Dr. Curtis is a teacher who inspires her students. When she teaches, a light shines out, that engages students during lectures, regardless of the topic that is being taught. She inspires students to follow their dreams, and she supports those dreams. I want to be a teacher because of Dr. Curtis. If I become half the teacher she is, I will consider myself successful.
It was a prolonged three months. My heart trembled and my hands twitched while I opened up a box of pregnancy tests. Realizing how hesitant and scared I was, I dropped the first pregnancy test into the toilet. “Plop,” was all I heard; and I inhaled a deep breath of worries. Thank god, I purchased a box that came with two pregnancy tests. Bent down beside the toilet, I grossly grabbed the first test that I had dropped in the toilet and tossed it in the trash. Quickly, I opened the other test, but this time, held it tightly, like my freedom was taken away from me. I slouch on the toilet seat and did my business fearing that my young days were over. As I slowing moved my hand to see the results, I saw two pink lines. My heart sank and I knew
Inspiration is a word and an action which occurs frequently in literature. Sometimes it’s strange what can inspire someone, or how vastly different people can be inspired by the same thing. Equally remarkable is how someone utilizes the inspiration compared to others and how inspiration can bestow the drive that enables ordinary people to rise above and achieve the seemingly impossible. Elias Lönnrot’s Kalevala transcends being a simple story by inspiring not only the Finns, but writers J.R.R.Tolkien and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow as well. They were highly influenced and made their goals and overall actions realized through this inspiration. They all have, if anything, the Kalevala in common and that is a thing of amazement, that a people
Throughout my life, I have always struggled with the concept of meaning; since I can remember I have suffered from depression. For many years I believed that I did not have a purpose, that God had abandoned me. These thoughts came from anger and resentment of everything and everyone around me. Because my emotions and mental state were negative, everything in my life had a negative outcome. Everything in my mind was everyone else’s fault, all I could focused on was how easy everyone else had it, and how difficult things were for me. Through this I began to question the meaning of my life, and the purpose I had on this world. My depression fueled this belief, that god had abandon me, and therefore I had no purpose. My
