Inspirational People

Archive: 12 posts

NOT the same as the 'hero' threads.

Almost everyone has someone who they draw inspiration from, who they look up too, who they aspire to be like.

As some of you may know, this person -

http://www.zmemusic.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/057bb318.jpg

was one of the people who has inspired me in a lot of things, even though i play guitar not drums (though i am going to start learning drums ) I draw inspiration from his music, i aspire to be in a band (though it won't happen...even if the band gets very little, i would rather have enough to live on and do that than have loads of money and work in an office), and he had an amazing attitude to everything. As everyone who has met him has said, he loved everyone, and he let you know it. He was funny, amazingly talented, and generally awesome. So he is one of my inspirations.

Slash inspires me, in a more specific way - his guitar playing is great, and a lot of the music i have written with my band has drawn from his style.

Lewis Hamilton inspires me - he wants to be the best, he has a good attitude, and he isn't afraid to go for something if he thinks he has even the slightest of chance... Which i don't, but i try

Just a couple of mine there... I'll post more later... So yeah, inspirations and heroes are different, so don't even consider locking this

So who are your inspirations?		2010-01-26 22:39:00

This might seem weird but one of my inspirations is Raiden from the Metal Gear Solid series. http://www.videogamesblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/metal-gear-solid-rising-artwork.jpg

Yes, I know he's just a fictional character, but his story really inspires me, as does the entire Metal Gear Solid story in general. Metal Gear Solid will ALWAYS be my most favorite game series of all time.

(Honorable mention for Solid Snake and Big Boss (Naked Snake))

I have to agree immensely. I'm going to become an astronomer when I grow up, and this man is my idol. Carl Sagan, if you pardon my french, is the total s***.
