What inspires me?

Ordinary People

         This video inspires be because it is a great representation of the ordinary person's life. Ordinary people inspire me because they alone are the majorette, and they are the ones who go through daily life and life struggles with bills and children, yet they don't gain recognition like celebrities. With no reward, with no fame, with no attention from others, people still cope with dealing with life. The ordinary person may seem irrelevant and not accomplished by those with much more fame, simply because their dream they once had didn't meet reality.
        Yes, everyone has a dream, to be big, to gain attention and satisfaction from others. To be rich and filled with wealth, to have children and their well being is safe at all times and provided for every second of their life. And for most ordinary people this dream they had, ultimately is hard to fulfill, that doesn't mean they are worthless. No, courageously instead they realize that the dream they had isn't obtainable and adapt to that realization. They don't give up but better yet they fight! They push to do the best they possibly can. With no farm or motivation. That is what I consider truly self driven.
        Me for example, my dream of becoming a professional basketball player gets slimmer as the year progresses. Now if I don't fulfill that dream, does that make me worthless, does that make me undesirable, does that make me weak? no, instead it inspires me to do more, it motivates me to actually fight for a stable future. The most inspiring thing about the ordinary people is how many of them there are. Especially the older ones who are ins tread rich with fame and money, are rich with experiences and knowledge. That is what keeps me positive and inspires me, just people in general.
