Inspiration

Similar to hope, inspiration is a feeling that encourages a person to do something, but the difference between inspiration and hope is inspiration encourages a person to do something creative. When I think of inspiration I think of someone getting the inspiration to do something artistic or getting the inspiration to do something that is better for them. I feel that everyone has some inspiration in them and it’s just waiting to be released and turned into something beautiful.

Thinking back on a time when I’ve had inspiration was just after I had quit my job last year when I was hit by a truck of inspiration. That inspiration encouraged me to turn my life towards how I wanted it to be. Even though I am only nineteen, I didn’t like the way life was heading, so using that inspiration I decided to go to college to get a degree to fall back on if I needed it in the future and I also made some goals that I am still working towards. While many people may not need the inspiration to change things in their lives, without it I would have not made the decision to change my life around to make myself happier.

A little bit of advice I have for others would be “don’t ignore any inspiration that you feel because it will benefit you in the long run even if it is simply having the inspiration to start reading more”. Even if that inspiration comes from the feeling of another person don’t fight the inspiration you feel and let it embrace you and free it when you are ready for it to be released.
