I was just sitting at my desk, trying to revise feeling bored when i thought of this thread title. just quite simply, do you have a role model? if so, who? it can be anybody, living or dead.
My role model would have to be WW2 fighter pilot ace Sir Douglas Robert Steuart Bader. I would say he is my role model mainly because his incredible arrogance and stubbornness and refusal to give in and take things lying down kept him alive throughout countless trials and tribulations of his life, for example when he lost both of his legs in a plane crash in 1931, then proceeded to fly throughout the second world war.
I would say he is a role model to me personally as i have had to endure quite a few medical conditions over my 17 years, for example at the current moment i am bald due to a stupid medical condition known as Alopecia, people do like to take the mickey instead of asking me about it, and its just something i'm going to have to live with, but i count myself lucky i haven't lost limbs like Douglas Bader and thats why he is my role model, i think we could all learn from his mindset that with the right mind and strength of will, nothing can keep you down
?Don't listen to anyone who tells you that you can't do this or that. That's nonsense. Make up your mind, you'll never use crutches or a stick, then have a go at everything. Go to school, join in all the games you can. Go anywhere you want to. But never, never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible." (Sir Douglas Robert Steuart Bader) YES THIS SHOULDN'T BE UNDER "GAMING DISCUSSION" SORRY GUYS! :S
