What inspires you? | Started by: DeadlySin on Apr 21, '11 16:34 |
Deadly wanders onto the streets, having way too much time to think to himself recently he'd been chewing over some things in his head. He clears his throat and begins to speak... |

Fab stumbles out of the local watering whole from acroos the streets, slighlty bluried eyed and can see DS mouthing words. Fab has had a few this afternoon so he walks over the street to listen in.
Well Ds fantastic speech, one id like to contribute to. Inspiration its self is a very diverse word one that means a lot of different things to a lot of different people and i think you have it spot on and it is relevent to the individual although a lot of values that you mention above will more than likely exsist in many peoples perception.
For me i can pin point it into two categories. Experience, as they say there is no substitute for it. Its something that i always have and always will look up to and look for as i know it will draw the best out in me. Knobody can fool you into believing they have experience as it will always come out in the wash.
Secodly knowledge, Knowledge is power and in this thing of ours a more true word has never been spoken. Put into context, you can have cannon but what is it worth without the knowledge to use it.
With both combined it would make for an awesome bit of inspiration for me.
With that Fab wobbles his sorry arse back over the road for a quick night cap. |

Benton sits on the hood of a parked car and listens to DeadlySin and the other speakers have to say. Standing he straightens his Red Serge and adjusts his Sam brown before speaking. |

Sitting on a bench next to the street Jimmy watches all the mobsters walking by.. some poor, some rich, some wearing fine pressed suits while others flaunt rags and a terrible smell |

Reading a newspaper under the tree and heard a man talking about inspiration, when he looks at the person and he see not just a man but a mafioso that is full of talent in the line of our society. iGoBerserk listen for what he said and waited for his turn to speak. |

Clown sits and watches the folks move and amble through the streets, for several weeks he has sat and in truth been inspired himself. He feels this is the very subject he should stand and put in his two cents, for it is one he holds close to his heart. |

Leaning on a nearby lamppost, Miko listens to what everybody has to say before making his way closer to the gathering crowd. He decides to step forward, pauses for a while before speaking.
The most understandable kind of inspiration comes from power and wealth and I would be lying if I say I don't become inspired by seeing the wealth and power that some people have. True enough that it inspires me one way or another but the one thing that truly affects me is the speakers who come out to the streets and have the ability deliver an articulate speech or start an intelligent discussion.
My ancestors have never been active in the streets or take part in any form of discussions. I myself am aiming to try and change that, street presence have never been a strength in my bloodline. So everytime I come across a good speech or intelligent discussion, I become inspired by that person to improve myself.
People get inspired by different things and some maybe more common than others. The most understandable kind of inspiration probably comes from power and wealth and I would be lying if I say I don't become inspired by seeing the wealth and power that some people have.
True enough that it inspires me one way or another but one thing that truly affects me is the words and actions of people in the streets whether it is a good discussion, well thought out speech or an articulate response. Words are sometimes more than enough to inspire others.
Ligthing a cigarette, Miko takes a long drag before continuing.

Miko then steps back into the crowd, waiting to see if anyone has anything to add. |

Hmmm, what inspires this twiztid Juggalo…
Well first and far most right now it would the honor to work for one of my fore fathers best friends, at the very least this gives this give an extra boost to want to do right.
Secondly, I enjoy the challenge that this thing of ours has to offer, to be able to choose your path of life and where you want to take it, and what ever you want to do with it intrigues me. As long as you keep your drive who knows where you will end up, at the end of the day its good to know you shaped that out come and it is more or so all done on your part.
Not to mention the level of competition, the desire to do better and continue to do just that on a daily basis.
Just my two cents,
Thanks. |

I don't mean to sound self centered in my response to the question at hand, but my biggest inspiration is myself. Particularly my goals. Every time I inch closer to completing one of any goals it inspires me to continue to move forward and motivates me to complete my goals more so than before. Every time I take a step forward I see how far I have come and only want and expect more of myself.Once I have completed a goal, I raise the bar and set a new standard for myself.
I guess I could say that others inspire me as well, as I look up to those who do the same. It takes a lot for someone to continuously out do themselves. Especially if someone has already achieved much in their life time and continue to achieve even more. |

Don Carlo steps forward to speak. Lighting his cigarrete as he does so.
I myself look to the past for inspiration, and in looking to the past i see three great men. Each links into another, and the last of the three is still with us today. I speak of course, of the honorable leader of chicago, Roman.
The first of the three is a man whos name is a prominent figure in the history books of this thing of ours. The legendary Deimne. The man stood as figurehead for this thing of ours for countless time, despite falling into abscurity in the end of his reign. How could one not find inspiration in his name? He inspires me to hold onto, for as long as is physically possible, any power i may one day acquire.
The second man, the man who finally brought about the destruction of the empire which deimne had created, was the powerful spacemountain, who shows me, that no matter how set in stone the heirarchy of this world is, through hard work and loyal allies, we may all achieve the power we deserve and change our world.
And the last, but certainly not the least, is as i mentioned earlier, Roman. This man was left the reigns to this thing of ours when spacemountain retired after finishing his conquest. This man fought back countless revelutions and revolts, from pathetic powergrabs to other, well planned rebellions. This man inspires me to be resolute and endure because they are the only ways to quell the fires of revolution and hold onto our seats of power when others would take it from us.
That is what inspires me at least, as to the others... to each their own.
With this he steps back into the crowd, ready to hear the thoughts of the other men and women gathered there. |
