Role Models

Most people have role models, people who inspire us and who we look up to. They can be living or dead, young or old.

So, who is your role model? (You can have more than one.)

Some of my role models are St. Therese the Little Flower and my teacher. I look up to St. Therese because she was young and put up with many trials, but she never gave up. My teacher is a role model because she is always smiling and she is kind.

That would be J.S. Bach and Matthew Cody for me.

Well, not all of them are real. For instance; Anne Shirley, Annabeth Chase.

Real; My mom, my best friend, L.M.Montgomery, Louisa May Alcott.

I thought so! Aside from her temper, she's determined, spirited, ambitious, and simply awsome!

@Charlie

Jesus is the perfect example of a role model!

ANDY WARHOL. So amazing. He also had a very cute dog named Archie. He was a wonderful artist and also a great guy. Peace out, Andy!

That's true, Jesus is a very good role model! But what about Buddha? He's amazing in my opinion!

Adam Young. He's a musician you may or may not have heard of under the names Owl City, Sky Sailing, and Port Blue. His main project is Owl City, but his side projects are amazing too. Adam Young writes and records all of his own music himself. (Besides the songs featuring other musicians. Obviously.)

Adam Young is my role model. L I need your help. You're like 15 right? Is it normal, when you are a teen/preteen, for anyone, anything, and everything to be somewhat upsetting? Oh and what do you think of my poem:

 

On the outside I am
quiet
calm
shy
On the inside I am 
raging
screaming
crying 
wanting
This is the me 
that hides
every day
and wants,
wants to come out
so badly
it hurts

I am not L, but I do understand that. For something that can help when you have emotions you don't know how to express, I suggest keeping a diary. Praying and reading the Bible always helps too. Also, I really like your poem.
