Inspiration

Most people don’t walk around on a day to day bases thinking about being inspired. It’s not a hot topic for most people. But when it happens, it is AMAZING. To see it, feel it, you know that warm deep burn you feel inside, the one that speaks straight to your heart! Almost always, moments in life you will never forget. They stick with you, change you, and probably impact you deeper than most emotions. There are also different ways to be inspired. To see something that is an inspiration is one way, to be a part of something inspirational, is another.

I can only speak for myself here, but the latter is much more moving and motivational for me personally. There is nothing better than the feeling you get when you save something or someone. To change a life, and to do these things and not expect payback, in my book that is as noble as it comes. Let’s face it, the honorable deeds are getting wiped out in this world everyday. I can’t really say that these acts of kindness and inspiration are less, I would think more washed out by the extreme increase of the unsettling.

Teach yourself to see Inspiration everywhere

I am a firm believer in seeing the good in everything I can. I am not one to be angry or cranky over little things. I fully embrace every day I have, through tough life lessons, I will go above and beyond to find the light in the darkness. Yes my friend, there is ALWAYS light, even when you feel like you have walked miles in pitch black. This story comes to mind as an example of seeing the good, inspiration lies in almost everything if you can open your eyes and mind to the miraculous. I was driving to the doctor’s office. Our youngest was sick with a cold that just wouldn't seem to leave her.

I was going down the road talking with her, thinking about my day and how big of a bump was put in it by being behind a good couple hours, due to the doctor run. Even though, all I could think of was our kiddo feeling better. As we are going down the road, there is a little SUV looking vehicle in front of me and a huge red dully truck in front of that one. The truck was big enough for a gap between the car in front of me and the truck in front of her that I could pretty clearly see both sides of the dully even under it some. Then my heart sank as this beautiful little black cat ran out and *BAM*, poor thing just wasn't quick enough to escape the huge trucks back tire.

I could see he had tags on, and the first thing I thought of was I must stop, but no, wait, my daughter! She can’t see this, it would stick with her forever. So what did I do? I drove into the oncoming traffic lane(don’t worry I looked!) to block her view as she was on the drivers side in the back seat of the car. I felt horrible! That was someones friend, someones companion. As those thoughts hit me, I see the lady in the little SUV ahead of me had stopped. Now this might seem like a horrible story, I can understand that, but the truth of the matter is, it was an inspiration, it was a good deed.

How many people have you actually seen take the time to stop for something other than there own agenda? Not many! I felt better knowing someone was doing the right thing. Was it a tragedy? Yes! Was it very sad for the cats family? Yes. But as far as I’m concerned there is nothing worse then the unknown when it comes to someone or something you love. They now, would know. My time setback, going to the doctor no longer mattered, as the cats family would probably cry for days. And that lady who ever she was in that SUV, reminded me in that dark moment, that there is light in this world, even in the smallest and most common situation. You just have to look.

Contribute Inspiration In The World

When I was younger I always knew I wanted to be able to do something in my life to help give meaning to others. To conquer a challenge, rise above and succeed, and to help others do the same. Now, I looked for a long time and in my life growing up, and my early adult hood, I realized how much money ran the world and people lives. I was like, really? Paper? Obviously, it’s not just paper, and to survive we must have it. After our daughters were born I had to be with them. I didn't want them to grow up like I did.

Don’t get me wrong, I had an awesome child hood. My parents were truly dedicated to my sister and I. But in order to give us what we wanted and needed, they had to work, A LOT! Not a day goes by that I am not thankful for there sacrifices, blood, sweat and tears they poured into giving us good lives. Through their journey and mine, growing up it instilled in me to never give up seeking what I was after.

That was a way to make money, and still have time for what I wanted, like being with my husband and kids. Not to struggle from pay check to pay check, yet still be able to accomplish my ultimate goal. To be able to inspire other people, and help them achieve the same success. Am I where I want to be? Not yet. Will I be? Your damn right!!
