"was deeply inspired by the wise words of said individual" (S81)

was deeply inspired by the wise words of said individual. Jesse’s fascination into the area of religion made him contemplate his own life, perhaps events which occurred in the past few weeks and months, wondering whether he had made the right decisions. Would their effects on others around him be any different? Would he be more respected around his peers, or perhaps have a closer relationship with his parents? Jesse suddenly wondered if he was living life to earn external gratification from others rather than through finding happiness from within. Jesse pondered into his predicament, now less agitated, the present is what he focused on. At that moment, the buzzing notifications from his phone no longer hindered him, they were no longer of significant importance. Jesse was lost in thought. It took a minute for Jesse to gather himself together, but eventually he continued listening to the speaker. Something in the speaker’s voice help him captive, perhaps it was his tone or maybe the inflections in each sentence. The speaker touched onto the subject of community and Jesse resonated. Who is this person, Jesse thought, a priest, a fighter, an actor? I guess it didn’t matter who he was, as to Jesse, it was ultimately the idea that inspired, not the person behind it, and that’s what mattered most.
