The month of April was a roller coaster, to say the least. As April 30th bleeds into May 1st, we reminisce on the month of April 2014 and look forward to what's to come in the month of May 2014. From everything that happened this month, especially the abrupt deaths of Ultimate Warrior and Daniel Bryan's father, many people will be quick to call if "one of the worst in recent memory". One trait that many people have is to immediately look at the negative in things. Well, what about the positive? WrestleMania 30 was a spectacle, as was the next night's Raw, and the wrestling world is really starting to feel fresh and fun again. Of course, plenty of other notable happenings have occurred outside the squared circle, but I'm merely pointing out the positives of wrestling because it's what I know. Regardless, it's been a memorable month filled with many life lessons learned. Did you know? The title of this blog, "Injection of Inspiration", stems from something Warrior used to say all the time in his YouTube videos. I wasn't a wrestling fan during the '80s. Hell, I wasn't even alive in the '80s! Thus, I was not a fan of The Ultimate Warrior around the time of most people. Warrior may not be one of my favorite wrestlers of all-time, but he is undoubtedly one of my biggest inspirational icons of all-time. It wasn't what he did in the ring that inspired me (though the Ultimate Warrior is indeed inspiring) but rather what the person said and did in his YouTube videos. Yes, he often posted controversial content due to being an outspoken person, but he inspired and motivated people with his words of wisdom. I fully believe that I wouldn't have the optimistic outlook on life that I have now had it not been for Warrior and his frequent injections of inspiration. |
