Millie317 MovieStarPlanet Blog: What (and who) inspires me

So everyone knows that I get mail from fans who call me their inspiration and comment on how I've changed their lives, which is the reason I play MSP. And I'm not sure if I've done a post like this before (most likely) but here's the main things (and people) that have inspired me.

Sorry for the long post, added some new music to the player if you want something to entertain you while you read ♥

DEMI LOVATO

So if you know me on MSP or read my blog you know I'm a huge Lovatic. Demi is such a huge role model after suffering self harm, eating disorders, drug and alcohol abuse, and bullying since a young age. The first time I saw Demi was on as the bell rings on Disney Channel, then again in Camp Rock and Sonny With A Chance. At the time I didn't have sky, but it was actually at my friend Jess' house (I was like 8?) and that night I went home and watched every episode of As The Bell Rings. When Demi released Don't Forget in 2008 my Mum was finalizing the divorce with my Dad which didn't really affect me but seeing my older sister cry (I didn't understand until I was older that they were tears of relief) broke my heart, when my Mum came home with the new album it helped me and my family to become stronger. When I was 13 I was diagnosed with an eating disorder and had started cutting, I was a train wreck, I didn't care if I died and I felt so alone. When I found out about what Demi was going through and how she'd fought to become stronger (going through rehab at 18) she inspired me to get help and to help others. To this day I still suffer from cutting but Demi and her story really helped me see the reality of my problem, which lead me to try stop others from going down that path if I can. Demi has inspired millions across the globe, teaching us it's okay not to be perfect, it's okay not to be okay and it's okay to speak up and get help.

Sonny With A Chance also gave me an understanding of love and how it can over come almost everything if you both put in the same effort (Channy).

So here's some of my favourite Demi Lovato gifs and quotes:

GLEE AND LEA MICHELE

So I discovered Glee a few years back and although it's quite unrealistic a lot of the story lines are relatable; cheating, teen pregnancy, bullying, coming out, not being able to express yourself because of how others see you, the crush on a boy you probably will never get, being an outcast, and wanting something too much.

But Glee taught me that it's okay to be different, it's okay to stand up for something you believe in and you can't judge people until you truly get to know them. Through the numerous story lines Glee teaches you that it gets better and that you shouldn't be ashamed to be who you truly are, you shouldn't stop believing in yourself or your dreams because they can come true if you work hard enough for them. The different characters and cliques coming together shows you that friendship is more important than popularity and that you don't have to be perfect because "Being a part of something special makes you special". You shouldn't be afraid to be who you are or what you believe in.

In Glee you see numerous love story lines however my preferred one is Finchel, Finchel showed me that you don't have to be perfect to be loved and that love comes in all shapes, sizes and ethnics, all it needs is one little spark. Also Lea and Cory began dating outside of the show, creating a tragic but true love story, allowing me to believe there is a true love out there for everyone.

Lea Michele is also a personal inspiration because she's doing something she loves and she's staying strong with the loss of Cory, releasing the album "Louder" (on the music player), with the song "if you say so" which were her last words to Cory. The song makes me cry due to the emotion behind the song but it's so beautiful. Lea is partially living her dream (without Cory), which leads me to believe that dreams are possible and that you don't have to be perfect to live them. Also Lea taught me that you don't have to be the traditional vision of pretty to be beautiful.
