BE INSPIRED

Our parents can inspire us to greatness, likewise teachers, coaches, politicians, literary minds and men of God. We can be inspired by nature, events or situations. We can also be inspired by a great piece of writing, a book (e.g., the bible), a speech, or a great work of art (Sistine chapel). We can be inspired by technology, architecture, religion, music or sport. We can be inspired by love, beauty, decadence, or even an ugly situation. We can be inspired by God and His attributes.

Some writers have been known to go away to a quite and lonely cabin in the woods, or a secluded place while working on a piece or a book because of the inspiration they get from nature and the environs. Some people have pictures of other people, places or things that inspire them hung their walls for continuous daily inspiration, while others listen to music, speeches, messages, or sermons of their heroes.

Brilliant, wise and talented people change time and the course of history. They are also currently in great demand. The truth is that many of us have the seed of greatness embedded deeply in our DNA just waiting for the right climate for it to sprout to live. No matter how great our gifts and talents might sometimes be, they become a waste if we do not try to be our best at it or at least use it. The use of our talents should first affect us, the owner and leave us better than we are, else we will not be able to impact others anyways.

So there, being our best can be a tricky thing if we don’t enjoy it, trying to have a little fun at something while aiming for the stars can be an even trickier feat to attain. Hence, the need for inspiration, because until we learn to enjoy using our talents we may never get the best out of them. Whatever we do on earth we need inspiration to do it well or to sustain it if we are already good at it.

The world needs more good people, more heroes and heroines. Be inspired. Come out of your shell, your cocoon. Arise and let your light shine on this bleak world. Be inspired. You are the next hero/heroine the world is waiting for. Be inspired. Don’t let negativity, your environment, ridicule, shame, criticism, poverty, loneliness, rejection or hurt hold you back. Be inspired. Know that you have what it takes and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Be inspired. Look for inspiration, something/anything to inspire you. They are all around us, in school, church, on the bus, on T.V, even in that boot camp.

Be inspired. It is the only sure way you can become an inspiration for someone tomorrow

Stay blessed
