Day 27: My Top Female Inspirations (27/1/15)

Dear MEDL,

Via FabulousFindsByTiffany.com
Day 27: "List 3 online friends you've never met in real life but hope to soon."

I have met many online friends on Wikia, but I don't feel like writing about them. Instead, I will write about my 5 role models, both fictional and real.

5) Helen Keller
Despite her disabilities, she has created a large impact in this world. As an active writer myself, Ms. Keller has inspired me to write without a doubt in mind.
Other than an author of many books, she had been an advocate for the disabled and a lecturer.

"Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye."

4) Temperance Brennan from 'Bones'
Dr. Brennan is a "world-renowned forensic anthropologist." She is the main protagonist in the TV series 'Bones' and the Temperance Brennan series by Kathy Reichs. Tempe is included in this list because she has a resilient persona. This is shown by her tremendous self-confidence, her unstoppable passion for her career, and the attitude she has towards animals.
Regardless of her inept ability to socialise and brutal honesty, she is my favourite fictional character and the source of my aspiration for a career in forensic anthropology.

"No matter what the anthropological reasons, we fight to make the world a better place."

3) Saint Maria Goretti
Saint Maria Goretti is my patron saint. She lived a rough childhood with her poor family at a farm eighty kilometers away from Rome. Maria was in charge of cooking, sewing, and looking after her infant sister while her family worked for the farmers. The Goretti-Carlini family had a deep connection with God.

At age eleven, she was stabbed repeatedly by her housemate, Alessandro Serenelli, for not obeying his instructions because "It is a sin! God does not want it!" She was rushed to the hospital but did not survive. She died while gazing at a picture of Mother Mary and clutching a cross to her chest.

"He loves, He hopes, He waits. Our Lord prefers to wait Himself for the sinner for years rather than keep us waiting an instant."

2) Jane Goodall
I admire this woman because she looks after wildlife and accepts them with all her heart. She is a quadruple threat: primatologist, ethologist, anthropologist, and the UN Messanger of Peace. Other credits include author & activist.

“We still have a long way to go. But we are moving in the right direction. If only we can overcome cruelty, to human and animal, with love and compassion we shall stand at the threshold of a new era in human moral and spiritual evolution—and realize, at last, our most unique quality: humanity.”

1) Every woman/girl I know in my everyday life
This includes my mother, Gwen & Regina, my female relatives, and the women/girls who keep me happy.

Thank you for reading today's post!
Stay powerful & beautiful as usual.

-M.Y ❤
