What Inspires You?









What Ispires You?

When I write, I am usually inspired by something I read, 
that I watched, heard, or someone I met.  
These 'impressions' in my mind end up being words on a page.
I might write a poem, 
or add to my blog, 
or start a new adventure - 
but it always seems to lead to a type of creative outlet 
based on what 'inspired' me!


I have also met many wonderful people
who have inspired me. 
I have this beautiful friend whom I adore. 
We first met some odd 18 years ago in Texas.  
This lady has the sweetest heart - 
Her tenacity to see life as a blessing just amazes me.
She has suffered so much in her health through the years I've known her.
However, she continues to inspire me - every day.

Why?  
Because no matter what trials she experiences, 
she has the strongest faith of anyone I've ever met.  
She also sincerely cares about you.
She could be having the worst day of the week, month or year
and she will still want to know if you're okay, 
to listen to our petty stuff....
because anything that her friends
and family have going on are that important to her!
That is just so precious to me!

Some people in the public eye also inspire me!

This video is older, but still has a great message:

"Opportunities look a lot like work"
"The sexiest thing in the entire world is being really smart, being thoughtful and being generous - the rest is just crap, I promise you"
"Build a life, don't live one"

This inspires me as well.  I love learning.
I love learning new things, new ways to grow, new ways to be a better person.

I love learning how to build my life - to write - to experience.

What inspires you? 
What motivates you to strive for more?
What teaches you to teach others?

Share in the comments - I'd love to interact with you!
