INSPIRATION COMES IN MANY FORMS
I am inspired today by the heat of the sun and water in the street, the sound of rushing fluids draining into the grated iron on the street corner. I may have forgotten that snow is mortal. Its death brings new life to me at this time each year.
I am inspired by the generosity of those closest to me, their words of encouragement and motivation, their smiles, their warmth, their selfless gifts of time spent, confidence, and optimism.
I am inspired by the hospitality and kindness of strangers. People who have taken a moment or a minute, perhaps a quarter-hour of one day of their life, to offer comfort or wisdom, faith or criticism, or maybe a one-word vote of confidence such as, “Nice!” It is a travesty to label such people “strangers.”
Today, I am inspired by you simply because you’re reading this.
Thank you.
