That’s what I do in these Star Trek pajamas I designed with cuffs and epaulettes, and pant pockets, even!

Sources of Inspiration Facebook Note
Copy the text between the dotted line as your note in Facebook, MySpace or other places. Put each of your answer on the line just below each prompt.
To make this an English as a Second / Foreign Language exercise, assign the note with some degree of explanation for each answer, whether a sentence, short paragraph or presentation.
—————————————————————————————
We are all inspired by others to some extent.
List a person or thing in the categories listed who inspires you, who lifts your spirits or who you admire. You may choose a few if it makes it easier for you since it isn’t always easy to choose one. You may also choose someone no longer living. However, challenge yourself to have an answer for each one because more sources of inspiration isn’t a bad thing in life, you know! If you absolutely don’t have an answer, though, you can write NONE. Your answers don’t have to be your best choice, just a choice that is true.
So put your CAPS LOCKS key ON to accentuate your answers and let’s get going!
1. Musician / band / singer
2. Natural object or event
3. Immediate family member
4. Animal

This wasn’t hard for me as I find inspiration easily in life, whether people or things. I could have done this note with 10 names apiece. I could have done this with people I know only rather than some famous people and some I know. I live by the philosophy I can learn something from everyone I meet, hear of, read about, etc. Most of it is positive and that usually equates to inspiration. It’s a wonderful mindset to constantly be in. It’s only too bad that with so many choices, in doing this note quickly, I didn’t come up with some more interesting answers since some sources of inspiration are much more prominent than others.
