Oh what the
heck, yesterday was International Happiness Day and a great day to be happy and
think about inspiration. I can finally
feel spring in the air and love the many social media reminders that spring has
arrived. Our pup and I even looked for
the sign of flowers poking their heads out of the ground today here in Cleveland,
Ohio.
What does
inspiration mean to you? Being creative,
helping others, reading your favorite book or Bible verse, a walk in the woods,
picking flowers from your garden, watching your child take their first step or
watching the sunset over the ocean. These
of course are all of our favorites and more.
Without inspiration, life would certainly be dull. Thoughts of inspiration should be as
important to us as what we are going to wear each day.
In an
article entitled “Why Inspiration Matters” by Scott Barry Kaufman he writes
that inspiration is evoked spontaneously and without intention by something.” Imagine inspiration as oxygen
that we consciously (or unconsciously) breathe in. Whether we are breathing in
an idea, vision or thought, inspiration changes something within us for the
better.
My recent inspiration came from a book called, “You are the Placebo,”
by Dr. Joe Dispenza which was shared with me by an incredible healer here in
Aurora by the name of Michael Ramsey.
Being diagnosed with cancer over seven years ago has brought me many new
discoveries. In my opinion, the mind and
body are the most powerful tools we process in life. Cancer does not scare me anymore and this
book is another guide that I am using to restore facial nerve damage done to
the left side of my face during surgery.
My facial nerve paralysis has been quite a
challenge and the conventional medical system has told me that I would not
fully recovery. As I have restored my body
to balance from cancer, I will restore my face to balance so that I too can
smile again from ear to ear. You see
this is my inspiration and knowing that I can do it will help me achieve
it.
Let your seeds of inspiration blossom! Feed
your curiosity with an energetic
lift and think outside of the box and making
creative exploration your M.O. Don’t ever stop believing that you can’t
achieve your greatest dreams. Inspire
yourself and others, including children, to go after what inspires you and
never stop believing in yourself!
