Sweet Inspiration


Inspiration. We could debate for days about where is comes from, but the point of this post is to suggest that we not ignore it. Ever.

So often in our adult lives we feel separated and cut off from those around us. He has a better job, she lives in a bad neighbourhood, they'll never understand what I'm going through...these are the kind of thoughts we have about the people we know. Of course this is false. We are not separate. We have more in common with all life on earth than we realize.

We are all connected and the realization of this connection opens us up to inspiration. We step out of the darkness of fear and into the beautiful light of love. I don't use the word "love" to imply sugary romance, but rather our true fearless nature.

Inspiration can come in many forms, but it always starts as a thought. You are the gatekeeper of your thoughts, so when inspiration comes knocking...listen. If the idea seems too big or out of reach, try not to discount it altogether. Chances are this is your Fear talking anyways. Rather, try and map it out. Are there some sweet, small steps you can take? Think of inspiration as that caring, maternal part of you that always has your best interest at heart.

You are meant for greatness. You define that greatness. Inspiration is that push...that nudge to get you moving forward. Leave your fear behind. Listen to that voice inside that knows you are capable of anything. Because you are.
