what would _______ do? no, this is not about religion, at least not per se.
do you have somebody in your life whose judgment on certain issues you trust - in other words, do you ever say "what would _____ do?" i've been lucky to have several people like that in my life: when it comes to business decisions, i wonder what Gene would have done. he was one of my earliest bosses, and a thoughtful and smart manager and business man. sadly, he died a few years ago of cancer, and i hope he knows that he's still an inspiration to me. in terms of nonprofit vision, i often wonder what Bonnie would do. she was a grassroots, street-fighter type advocate for people in need, and i adore her for it. Clarence is my inspiration when it comes to faith, although he is of a different religion from mine. he knows his stuff, and lives his life accordingly. i admire him tremendously. and when it comes to humor, nobody beats my husband. he cracks me up every single day, and i love him more all the time. 
who has been your real-life inspiration? | |

my grandfather was very active in everything he did. he was president of the statewide professional society he belonged to. he was president of several business organizations he was involved in. he did alot of charity work. He had plaques of awards and recognition covering the walls of his house (i have those plaques now). Im most of the things I've been involved with professionally and charitable I've become president or vice president.
sense of humor, my dad has always had a good one, although these days I don't think he's funny. I had a cousin "muz" who had an awesome sense of humor, but we lost him to brain cancer a few years ago politically, (say what you will, i'm entitled to my beliefs) Ronald Reagan.

Plenty.  But one in particular stands out... Paul Jones.
Paul Jones, I love you mate.  I saw him for the first time in ages last night and it was a very significant evening. Once again, he has taught me things that he never even knew he was teaching me. He has been a profound infuence on my life.
Thank God we sat next to each other in Metalwork in Year 2, comprehensive school. Things might have been very different. [Edited 10/1/06 12:00pm] | |

who has been your real-life inspiration? I don't understand, is this a multiple choice? 
If so, I'd have to go with Bonnie. | |
