Free-write about one of the following. If you finish early, start on the other one. 


1) Describe a mythological/cultural etc hero that inspires you. I'm talking Big Hero here, anything from Christ to Spiderman to Martin Luther King to Beowulf etc., real, imaginary, well known, unknown etc.  What is it this person/people thing DID, literally, that you found inspiring?
 

Describe the monster they defeated, battle against etc.  What was it about this thing/creature etc. that was "monstrous"?  On a larger level, what was the essence of the monstrosity, from a philosophical etc. point of view?

What you will do in your lifetime to continue their legacy.

How might this hero have confronted and perhaps attempted to solve the issue you're dealing with for your final topic?
