"Good actions give strength to ourselves and inspire good actions in others."



So today I woke up and decided that the readers of my blog should really know what drives me, what inspires me. In conclusion, I decided that today I am going to write about my top five inspirations. They are all unique but are all absolutely brilliant in their own little way.

. . .

First, Jennifer Lawrence. Now as a teenage girl at first I loved her as a fan. I loved the way she acted and I loved her beauty. Then I found a quote: she had said, "In Hollywood I'm obese. I'm considered a fat actress. I eat like a caveman. I'll be the only actress that doesn't have anorexia rumours! I'm never going to starve myself for a part... I don't want little girls to be like, 'Oh! I want to look like Katniss, so I'm going to skip dinner!'" Jennifer goes on to say that while she was training (for the role of Katniss Everdeen in the movie The Hunger Games) she was trying to get her body to look fit and strong, not thin and underfed. I love the way that when she knew she would be a role model to plenty of young girls, and in knowing that made sure she was a perfect example instead of conforming to society and the media's idea of perfection. Jen does things her own way, and doesn't care about what anybody thinks, a quality I aspire to have. 


Secondly, Walt Disney. What can you say bad about a man who brings joy to millions of people across the world!? His imagination, his happiness, his passion; all inspiring aspects of this man. As a lover of Disney films, I see this man's creativity all the time, and I love it. My favourite Walt Disney quote is this... "If you can dream it, you can do it." There is an enormous amount of hope in everything to do with him. In the Disney films, in his quotes in everything! It is inspiring to explore his life. FUN FACT: Walt was once fired from a newspaper company for lacking creativity! I love how this didn't slow him down, and now he has a empire to show for his hard work! 


Thirdly, Ellen DeGenerous. Talk show host, openly lesbian celebrity, and gorgeous woman. As her last name suggests, she is such a generous and down to earth person. She is hilarious and understands people so easily. On Ellen's talk show, she is constantly giving money to charity and to people in need as well as giving people in the audience gifts and experiences they will never forget. Her sign off/catch phrase is 'be kind to one another', a simple yet important message that Ellen shares everyday. Ellen's values are hard set and she lives her life by them. She once said; "I stand for honesty, equality, kindness, compassion, treating people the way you'd want to be treated and helping those in need. To me, those are traditional values. That's what I stand for." She thinks of others before herself and strives to make the world a better place as much as she can. I admire that. 


Fourth, Bunny Meyer. A YouTuber that goes by the name Grav3yardgirl. Bunny is amazing, she has such a unique style and is hilariously funny. She is so real, she doesn't act like a god as some celebrities do, she acts like a regular person. She is incredibly individual and tells it like it is. She does things right and wrong, she's scared of things, she has anxiety at times and she tells her swap family (her YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram followers) about her life with making herself appear impenetrable. She is human, she is an extraordinary human. Bunny is beautiful, funny, real, artistic and more. She brightens my day when I watch her videos and has such a good influence on people. I love that about her. She understands, accepts and loves her flaws. She celebrates her amazing qualities. (Link to her YouTube Channel : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGwPbAQdGA3_88WBuGtg9tw ) 


Lastly, Channing Tatum. Well, he's passionate about his work, he's loving to his beautiful wife, Jenna Dewan, and he is damn good looking! Short and sweet to round off my five inspirations.




Signing off now, hope this helped you 
understand a little more about me.
