[in-spahyuh–adjective
1.
aroused, animated, or imbued with the spirit to dosomething, by or as if by supernatural or divine influence:an inspired poet.
* Well, I cannot say I am feeling particularly aroused, but I definitely can relate to being animated. Personally, I have no idea how any person could manage living without ever experiencing a feeling such as this.
I find it all throughout my day-to-day life, whether it's at Starbucks where I see a girl trying a new twist on her oh-so particular coffee, or when I hear a personal philosophy from somebody intelligent.
In the past 48 hours, I have felt the tingling sensations of inspiration in various areas of my life:
-After an unnerving Graduation Transitions presentation, I felt 100000x more confident not only in myself, but my decisions to pursue a career in Journalism, or English education.
-Not to preach, but Eat, Pray, Love (book AND movie) has changed my life. Read/Watch. You will not regret it. It has taught me about religion, love, and taking a breather from a hectic life only to learn more about yourself.
-I have made a liberating (and equally terrifying) decision to remain in Kelowna next year. Do not for one second think to yourself that I have taken the "easy way out" by staying at home. It is scary.
Whether you are like me, responding to everything around you like a feather responds to wind or someone who needs a little more to stir up a little thought in the mind.. I dare whoever reads these words now to allow themselves to be inspired. And DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

* Taking this opportunity to give a special thanks to a miss Ty-Rae Heathcote for being a tad inspirational (understatement) in my life. Keep doing what your doing chica! |
see you in 2011 Venice. |
