A sense of inspiration or state of awe does not occur to me very often when seeing a certain place or being in a specific moment. However, my idea of sublime is associated with people, the highest form of admiration and excellence i have experienced is through the way i have seen and heard stories of different people. Reading biographies and hearing the news about certain people such as Malala Yousafzai, Bernie Sanders, or even when seeing the hundreds of women fighting for their rights against the recent acts on abortion give me a sense of sublime.
People don’t know the power that they hold and when i encounter those that use their voices to spread change through out the world it inspires me to find my voice as well. The individuals that come together to fight for something they believe in unifies the world in a way and allows humans to feel closer to one another over the shared interest of the rights that they deserve. When witnessing the drive and motivation that people hold inside them it allows me to find my ambitions and induces me to act upon my goals with a sense of determination.
Even people like my friends and my family have made me experience a sense of sublime towards them. I believe that any individual has the power to inspire somebody and that this advantage should be acted upon whenever felt necessary. The world requires change everyday especially since 1/20/17 and its important for everyone to come together and create a sensation of sublime for others who need yet to be inspired.
