Who is someone you idolize/has given you hope?

[deadofdespair]

It could be someone you personally know, or a famous celebrity or anything like that. Someone you look up to and admire etc.

For me it has always been Ronaldo, his ability to take immense criticism and pressure and still perform and maintain extreme discipline is something I can only admire and never achieve.
I also admire his hunger (whereas I am unmotivated). If u ever see him play, you can physically see the extreme hunger in his eyes. It manifests on his body physically even after everything he has achieved. (Sorry for the long paragraph.)

This might seem so silly for some people but because of how i grew up i was bullied extremely bad and i never felt human because of my condition by anyone not even my family
And the only time where i feel seen and understood is when i go to my hospital appointments personally they truly care about me and they dont care or treat me differently for my condition and they understand it and i just feel more confident being myself around them
Everytime i come out of them i just have hope in life idk like i should try living and they make me have a different view on life which i love

I think that's completely normal; it's good you find hope. May it stay.

I think the only person that's ever given me hope was my beloved, I'm sure I'm starting to tire and bother people by speaking of him so often, it's just that he's the only.. Person and thing and concept I ever lived for and hoped for, meeting him was a dream, the world gained color, it was like everything meant something for the first time in my life.. I finally Cared about things, I cared about waking up in the morning, I cared about eating, feeling pretty, seeing the world, I cared about surviving so I could live a great life with him, besides him nothing ever had much reason in my life, I lived day to day just hoping I'd get run over, I remember even considering murdering someone that's hurt me because I didn't care about jail, I didn't care about anything at all, when I got with him I finally did, I love him so dearly, he's my one hope and my last breath

There is some guy who is often at the place I work at and always says hi to me specifically. Always makes my day better. I wish he knew how happy it makes me but unfortunately it won't be enough to keep me around.

One of my online friends, who I have been friends with for three years now. He is one of the kindest, most thoughtful, most pleasant people I have ever spoken to. I feel incredibly honoured to be one of his friends. He has definitely given me hope. Even when I have been at my lowest, he has been there for me. In some ways I wish I could be more like him. He inspires me to want to be a better person.

I like Anthony Bourdain. Proof that whenever you go, there you are. No point of trying to outrun your demons

1.Nick Vujicic -I admire him for remaining positive despite having no limbs.
2.my mother -If it weren't for my mother, I probably wouldn't be alive today.

I like christiano ronaldo too I think he's a great role model. That said I don't rly have anyone I admire too busy focusing on myself and trying to survive these days

 

[Mental666]

You made me realise that I don't have anybody who is my idol and gives my hope lol

My pfp is Mai Mizuhashi, singer of former Jpop duo Garnidelia. She's my hero. Not only is she highly talented, but she has a long track record of writing her own lyrics, making her own dance choreographies and costumes/outfits for on stage. She was raised by her mother and was bullied through her childhood while helping raise her sister. Despite not being super popular in Japan, she found extreme success in China after appearing on a Chinese TV reality show in 2023 and since then she's started her own studio and has become entirely solo. She's also has spine, having said publicly that she supports one china policy. In an interview on global times she said she understood that such a statement would cause her a lot of hate from her own Japanese audience and that she didnt mind because shes convinced by her experiences performing and being in China. I really have the deepest respect for her and love that she makes music for both Chinese and Japanese, going so far as too learn Chinese just to produce songs in their langauge. She's a lady who wants to bring China and Japan closer through music and her successful career brings me immense hope.

I can't say the name here, but it's an idol. Well, she's part of a jpop group. unfortunately she's like an angel for me, saving me from countless impulsive attempt just by her acknowledging my struggle. it's kind of funny because it's probably really unhealthy. but she gave me hope anyways

I honest to God believe the anti-hero/idol people are just bitter asses. Obviously everyone is human but as people we like having others to look to and I think we should take pride in our heros. There exist great people in this world and we are not wrong for recognizing them.

Right! In my case it's an idol, so their goal is to like.. bring happiness more than anything. And if that really works on me, then is it really that bad? they're basically a hero for some.

on one attempt a ladybug landed on my arm and got me to back out for that attempt. not really an idol cause it prevented my ctb in a way but i thought it was cool at the time.
