I saw this idea over on The Writers Alley yesterday. As I thought more about it, I realized there are so many unforgettable characters who truly inspire me. It's amazing what writers can imagine, isn't it? What characteristics they choose and the personality quirks that make each character unique? And how they can infuse them with beautiful hearts and souls. Even though their fictional! Pretty awesome, if you ask me :)
Certain aspects we definitely connect with better than others, and these particular characters I've chosen stand out in my mind. After reading their stories, they refused to leave my heart. They feel like they're part of me now!
So! Here's my list:
1. Valancy Stirling {The Blue Castle} - because she finds her Brave
2. Charlie Lionheart {The Lady and the Lionheart} - because he understands sacrificial love
3. Emilia Mason {Can't Help Falling} - because she understands and loves all things Narnia
4. Catherine Dougall {The Thorn Keeper} - because she has inner strength
5. Samwise Gamgee {The Lord of the Rings trilogy} - because he's a true friend
6. Anne Elliot {Persuasion} - because she's learned to be strong
7. John Thornton {North and South} - because he stays true to himself and his heart
8. Cori {My Hands Came Away} - because she sees the worst and chooses to do something about it
9. Lucy Pevensie {The Chronicles of Narnia series} - because she believes
10. Samantha Moore {Dear Mr. Knightley} - because she learns she's worth it
Who are some characters you're thankful for?
Samwise Gamgee would be on my list if I were to do this too. I love him so much!!!
ReplyDeleteJenni: How could anyone not love Sam?! He's so wonderful!
