I was very recently asked who my inspiration was while I was growing up. Which I guess means, who was my hero?

It stumped me, which was probably not such a good thing because there was a fair bit riding on my answers to these questions.

The truth is, I cannot recall ever having a ‘hero’, or being particularly inspired by anyone. I imagine the stock response would be to name some great figure of the last century and prattle on about how they taught me this that or the other, or how their determination to do X while Y & Z happened showed me blah blah blah…

I just dont care. Maybe because I didn’t really live in the same world as those people when I was growing up, they just dont mean anything to me.

To be perfectly honest, the closest thing I have to an inspirational person I can think of, probably only exists in a book.
