Some people receive inspiration from art work. Some people are inspired through their connection with the universe and its abundance over flowing for all that are receptive to it. Some people are inspired just by looking and observing life.
I am a person that is inspired by children and animals. They inspire me because they are authentic in everything they do. From the breath they breathe to swinging in the swing at the play park. They are fully engaged in the moment they are experiencing. With animals, there is no pretension. They give 100 percent of themselves to the situation. They forgive mistreatment as soon as the act is over. They do whatever they can do for a rub or to just sit quietly beside you. They are in the moment.
I've read many books about becoming my authentic self. Its been a long journey from a negative self and on my way to becoming my authentic self. Learning not to judge or prejudge the event as it occurs but to receive the blessings it brings has been an adventure in itself. Learning to hold back on the analysis of the situation before the blessing is received has taught me objectivity. Being in the moment and appreciating the gift of now is an inspiration to me to be fully present when the God of the universe offers me gifts.
