When I first read this week’s topic in the Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge, I thought it would be easy because so many books, movies, and TV shows have inspired\/influenced me.\u00a0 This quickly became one of the hardest topics ever because I couldn’t decide which one to choose, or which way to go with the post. Should I pick one that influenced my creativity in some way, or one that got me through difficult times, or one that changed the way I look at the world?<\/p>\n
I decided to go with a play. In grammar school I was obsessed with Man of La Mancha. During some rough times as a kid, my obsession with that play was the only thing that motivated me. I loved the idea of Don Quixote, looking at the world in a way no one else could see, and I felt an emotional connection to Aldonza, a woman torn between the reality of her world and the fantasy of Quixote’s. Back then I knew all the songs and most of the play word for word.<\/p>\n
To this day, it’s still one of my favorites.<\/p>\n
