Hello peeps...the name of this game is...SCATTERGORIES!.

And, this is how we play...

I am going to set a SUBJECT

i.e.

5 BOYS NAMES THAT START WITH THE LETTER "J"

The next person would have to reply with 5 boys names that start with "J"

i.e.

John

James

Jason

Julian

Juan

THEN they would also have to set the next subject, for the next person...

i.e.

4 COCKTAIL DRINKS...and so on and so forth...

---

So, for our first SCATTERGORY...I choose...

7 ICE CREAM FLAVOURS.

GoodLuck!.

I had a hard time thinking of 'inspirational' as opposed to 'hugely admirable' people. Purely for myself, I so greatly admire some people, wishing I could do what they have done, in ways they have done it...  like climbing Everest or getting to the stars in space, challenges so far beyond my talents & abilities, I can only marvel & wonder. 

The one who movs most is Joni Mitchell, for the songs, thepoetic writing, the painting, the arrangement & production side as well.

Another is a painter in a different styl. That's Salvadore Dali.

& for writing, fiction in particular, I still admire Stephen King, for how he puts a story together, often with characters that have some depth, & with humour. I get a great sense from reading his work is that he is having a lot of fun.

I know, that's not quite answering the challenge to name 3 'inspirational'  people, but I just wanted to get this game going again.

I thought of adding myself, hoping to in some odd way, be my own inspirational person, even if it is through fear & anxiety, to become a healthier me.
