Ah yes. This woman right here inspired me to come out to my mother. She isn't afraid of who she loves. She writes songs about girls and doesn't make it too over the top. She truly helped me find who I really was and taught me that it's okay to like girls. Girls like girls like boys do. Nothing new.
Ellen Page
Recently came out as gay!!! She was honestly one of my favorite actresses and I loved whatever she starred as. She played a girl named Juno that was a teen mom but she still got shit done. And to see that a person I look up to likes women means that I can like them too.
Lady Xeona
This little girl has one of the highest I.Q in the world. She could read before 6 months and is honestly one of the kindest people you can ever lay eyes on. She has a YouTube channel that you can watch her videos on but hasn't been active since 2015. The reason being is that she's taking college courses and she's only ten years old!! How amazing is that? Lady inspires me to become a better person. Be kind, be smart, and just be wholesome.
Gerard Way
Ah okay so here's why Gerard is one of my biggest heroes. It's the fact that he was a 20 something drunk for three years and got sober in just 17 days. That's honestly one of the most remarkable things I have ever heard. Knowing that if Gerard can do that and become a healthy man with a roof over his head and a loving wife and daughter then I can do it too. I can overcome anything because it seems like the easiest thing ever when comparing it to being drunk and becoming sober in a short amount of time.
Brendon Urie
I've had some differences about Brendon in the past and what he's done but he still inspires me. I used to have severe anxiety and panic attacks. When I found out about Brendon having anxiety and ADHD I was blown away. It seemed so easy for him to go on stage in front of thousands of people and perform while I'm over here barely passing a class because I don't want to get in front of the board. It became a case similar to Gerard. If he can do it, I can too. I started talking and making friends and getting passed my anxiety. It was all thanks to Brendon Urie.

This man. Ugh this man. Let's see. A mentally ill boy who had suicidal tendencies and tried to take his own life once? Now in an amazing band that has taken over the world? That's impossible! Not. Yep you can see why Pete has inspired me. You see, a year or so ago I tried to take my own life. My parents got divorced, my dad's girlfriend hated me with a fucking passion. My diabetes was getting worse. I wanted to end it all. Nothing was going right. I bet that's how Pete felt too. He struggled with so much more than I did and look where he is now! In an amazing band that's saved countless lives. (Not to mention a loving girlfriend and two beautiful baby boys) If he decided to go on and kill himself he would have never gotten to where he was. I like to believe I'll be there someday. I like to believe I'll be happy.
Anyway there is all my idols currently. I wanted to make this because I wanted to show why I'm like this today. Why I'm trying to be a better person. I'm taking these examples and putting them into my life. If it weren't for them I don't know where I'd be right now.
