Re: Which aspect of FIRST gives you the most inspiration?

I want to add on to my response since after today. I also think that the people are the most inspirational because of this.

Today, we were displaying at our local 4-H fair. When ever we were playing with the robots, so many people were there, impressed, stunned, and in complete awe, let alone having a lot of fun. But my favorite was whenever a little child would come up to our robots, they would just stare at them with HUGE eyes. And whenever some of them were taking rides up and down on this years robot, they would just smile like they were having the best time of their life. This inspires me because I like to be a part of making somone have fun, and the incouragement of people thinking that waht we are doing is incredible, is just as powerful. But the top of it all, is to see all of those young childeren, looking at awe at what we do, to know that we are impressing them, and that we are going to be a part of making their future brighter, that is what really inspires me to continue working with FIRST, because we are here to make their future brighter.
