inspire and be inspired

I’ve been inspired by many people, but did I inspire any one?

I have found this goal to be, strangely, uninspiring. In the future, I’ll choose to have more specific goals.

i just hope that i will always be inspired by people, places, things and emotions. i hope to inspire others throughout my life as well. there is something about the feeling when you start to feel inspired… like you are waking up from a nap. refreshed and ready to take on the day.

A few months back, I was inspired to adopt a goal to make Kiva loans through an invite from a 43 Thinger and now I find that my having the goal has inspired another 43 Thinger to start loaning! What a good thing!

My grandmother passed away the other week. She was old, and she was ill, and it was what she wanted. She had a long, impressive life – she did, saw and learned so many things. It was time.
Still it’s very, very sad.

I’ve always been so impressed with her. She inspired me. She was what I aspire to be – successful in love, family and home as well as in career, studies and personal dreams. Oh how I wish I had even half of her authority, her confidence to go for what she wanted, her courage to live true to herself and her feminist views.
She was born in a time when women where expected to do little more than cook, clean and have babies. Still, she followed her own heart – studied, travelled, married ‘late’ out of love. She did all that She wanted, never the doormat or people pleaser, while still having many kids and a long, happy marriage (50+ years).
She was a matriarch; one of the strongest women I have ever met. I am very grateful I had the chance to know her and be inspired by her. I will miss her. And maybe on day, I’ll find the courage to live a little bit more like her.

I feel corny saying this, but after watching the Wimbledon finals today, I feel inspired. I mean watching the last match between Federer and Nadal, and how much heart they put into it. It was touching. I’m totally hooked on tennis now, and that would be so nice to go to London one year and get in to see Wimbledon.

I don’t want to share any personal experience but i just want to give live example of a person Shane warne who inspire me so much after his performance in DLf World cup.

I have had a recent obsession with movies, the power they give off and the stories they tell. Not dumb blockbuster movies, but real movies that take you into a world that was until now, completely hidden from you. I want to make these movies, i want to inspire people through film, to inspire, you must do more then talk, to be inspired you must do more then listen. You have to see, hear and understand. The key to inspiration is the will to understand, inspiration goes hand in hand with understanding, without the will to listen to one, there is no hope in the other.

I wish life would give us hint…like, “pay attention life is moving on without you living it” but it doesn’t. We simply have to stay awake and that is a task that challenges me. It isn’t because I don’t live an inspirational life, I teach, and so I am constantly dreaming about ways to inspire and be inspired. The stillness happens when I allow something or someone to penetrate my energy with negativity. Pretending that they or it don’t exsist doesn’t work…it is learning to allow their presence to remind me that life is moving forward, you just hope not in their or its direction.

To be inspired is to open up to something bigger than your small “i”. Its opening up to your Self. Inspiring others is stimulating others to open up to their Self
