What inspires us? In the thesaurus, words that are synonymous with inspiration are “bright idea” and “guiding light”—beautiful images of hope.
Inspiration can be a spark, a spotlight, or a glow, and when it comes to us, it can light up our day as well as lighten our spirits.
Inspiration isn’t hard to find—it’s in music, books, and especially nature. People can inspire us too—we’ve all had someone for whom we’ve wanted to be our best selves.
We might not always consider the fact that we can inspire other people, but each day we have that capacity.
When we choose to shine our lights, they become guiding lights for others, and an amazing and positive way to change the world.
