Ordinary Inspiration

What inspires you? I have definitely been inspired by a beautiful, warm, gooey chocolate chip cookie. The bigger the cookie the more inspiring it is. You feel me? I have more than once had to shut up the skinny girl within with a cookie or two. Thin mints. THOSE are inspiring! So inspiring in fact that I can force myself to eat an entire sleeve in one sitting. Delicious. Aside from inspiring my inner food critic I find inspiration in so many places. Where does it come from for you? Do you believe that it is the Spirit speaking to your heart? Is it a moment of clarity and genius? Is it the result of just being an incredibly hard working? The thing about inspiration is that it is freely given to all. It isn't something only those with prestige receive. Ordinary people are often inspired to do extraordinary things. I think that one of the things that brings inspiration is ones ability to see within themselves something divine. Too many of us assume that a person is only great if they are publicly recognized for their efforts, creativity. In fact, sometimes the most inspiring people in the world will go completely unnoticed. What inspires are the people who do something to better humanity in their own small corner of the world. I find lots of inspiration through music, my faith, those I surround myself with. I am proud to associate with some of the most ordinary people who are capable of inspiring some of the most extraordinary things!
