Inspirational fictional characters!

     We do not give the characters we love enough credit in how we think and what we do. When was the last time you saw a wardrobe and wanted to find Narnia? How many times have you wished you could get the remote control with the force? Have you hummed "happy working song" as you worked on a project? How long have you been waiting for your Hogwarts letter? We all are affected by what we see but how often do we give our fictional role models a second thought when we say their catchphrase or act as we think they would in the same situation? Do we thank Lucy for finding Narnia or Obi-Wan for introducing us to the force? How often do we thank Snow White for the song or Dumbledore for the dream of that letter?
     I'd like to thank my fictional role models. Thank you:
