The "What Would They Dos?"

Well... This is a bit awkward.. It's been a while, yes, since I've written anything on this blog and I apologize.. Mostly to myself because I've been going a little crazy lately and slacking off quite a bit. However, I'm not going to talk about the past couple.. three?...weeks? I don't know.. I'm just going to jump back in because it's nearly July fourth and I'm excited (tired) to get this jump started once again.

A list. There's a list I have and I keep close, a tiny list that I think might be able to help anybody needing a boost. It is pretty small, I always try to keep it at around five people and those are always in the top five even if the list changes over time or based on the situation, it's always important to keep at least two people for emergencies. I call it the "What would they dos" list and it's helped me before and just recently I've gone back to thinking about it. There's a lot of variations bt I'm going to keep with my classics and just go over who and why for all of them. My five person list includes 1. What would Steve Rogers do? 2. What would Martha Jones do? 3. What would the Doctor do? 4. What would Donna Noble do? 5. What would I do?

1. What would Steve Rogers do? He's a biggy for me, you see when I saw off the options I always end up with just him which is why he's my favorite. I look up to this character, I aspire to be this character and I attempt to emulate this character to the best of my ability. And he's important because of all those things but that's a personal thing for me. Practically thinking, it's always good to have that altruistic character there to help you make decisions that are morally good. Steve Rogers is the character I trust never to lead me off the right path and that's why when I'm thinking about my future I consult his history and attitude looking for some helpful suggestions. Always have someone on your list (No matter who you are) that reminds you where the line is and where the wholesome and good road is, even if you're somewhere off roading and have no intentions of coming back. Steve Rogers is the shining ideal that we need in our lives simply to keep moving forward in creating a better world.

2. What would Martha Jones do? Now she changes a lot for me and perhaps she wouldn't have been my first choice for this list but she is just simply such a beautiful example of helpful people that I put her down. (In the original list it was Evy O' Connel). Dr. Martha Jones; The woman who walked the earth. Probably the most underrated of the Doctor's companions even though I stand firm on the fact that she was the most intelligent, hardworking, and realistic of his companions. She represents the simple ambition and the common sense to get through this world. She saw things as they really were and she kept a straight and narrow path while still being one of the most fearless, ruthless of the Doctor's companions. She went through medical school, she inspired Shakespeare, she faced death fearlessly while still comforting the people around her, she walked the earth, she laughed in the Master's face, she left the Doctor because she understood that she deserved better because she wasn't second best. Martha Jones was one of the biggest BAMFs in television history and no one will ever be able to convince me otherwise. She may be the hardest voice to because she is the intelligent common sense that wills you to be all you can be done but it's worth it to listen to this incredible woman and set her as an example.

3. What would the Doctor do? Now, he's a little more complicated however, I keep his voice around for several reasons. When you ask this Doctor what to do or what he would do the answer is always the same and it's simple and it stays in the back of your mind and he never fails to make you question your entire existence simply by saying this one word. "Run." The Doctor is the faceless explorer in all of us that reminds us of our childhood bravery and scolds us for letting time move around us instead of making time stand still for us. Not only that but he's also very old and very wise, he understands more than we could ever hope to and yet he knows that he has barely scratched the surface in the magic of the universe. He's wise, he's humble and he never stops appreciating the beauty of life or being excited for every moment in this life. Keep him on this list in order to mess up your shining ideal of what your life is and what it could be.

4. What would Donna Noble do? Ah, yes, another of the Doctor's companions, sorry about that but she is just to perfect of an example to pass up. Donna Noble represents the part of you that is yelling and screaming and throwing a tantrum, the part of you that wants to be heard, wants to be special but mostly just want's to be heard. She was the woman who was trying to make the world a better place by yelling at it basically. She spoke her mind and never took any crap from anyone while still being self conscience of her own life she still continued to yell, to be heard and to try to move the world around her. She's that voice telling you to speak up, I need to listen to her more than I do and I'm hoping that by asking myself what Donna Noble would do, I can improve that part of my life. Another important, yet less talked about part of Donna is the fact that she was one of the kindest people in the show, she was curious and protective of her fellow women and she stood up for them. Donna Noble: The most important person in all of creation.

5. What would I do? Never only look to others in order to make decisions, you have the history and the ability to make your own choices properly. I suggest looking at yourself and your life in third person and as the protagonist in your own personal story. What have you done that is inspiring? Who have you loved? How have you made the world around you a better place? Put the situation in perspective and then ask yourself, What would you (This unique character) do if someone you love was in the exact same situation?

So there's my list, complete with reasons but I also wanted to include a few other characters that could easily be on that list, they include; Charles Xavier, Jemma Simmons, Pepper Potts, Raven Darkholme, Ororo Munroe, Jean-Luc Picard, Geordie La Forge, William Riker, Deanna Troi, Amy Pond, Juliet O'Hara, Sam Wilson, Natasha Romanof, James Rhodes, Raymond Langston, Wonder Woman, Bilbo Baggins, Peggy Carter, Jane Foster, and only in the worst case scenarios... What would Loki do? But remember all lists are individual. :)
