Things That Inspire You

[Nikolaj]

My favorite inspiration is from Acts in the King James New Testament, I just find such poetry in it and a meaningful truth that nothing and no-one can take away from me. It's this:

"The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and glorious day of The Lord. And everyone who calls on The Name of The Lord will be saved."

Italics mine. Everyone. Not just all 'normal' people with their husbands or wives and children. Everyone. That one passage has the power to shut a lot of people up; but more importantly, it proves that salvation is for the asking, for all who want it.
I just think it's beautiful, with no desire to get all 'religious' about it here.
It's just the greatest inspiration within me.

My greatest inspiration would be my two children. They just naturally inspire me everyday to try to be the best mother\person that I can possibly be.

Then, music, the ocean, my faith, and will power.

"The woman who cherished her suffering is dead. I am her descendant. I love the scar-tissue she handed on to me, but I want to go on from here with you fighting the temptation to make a career of pain." - Stanza VIII from Adrienne Rich’s “Twenty-One Love Poems”

Did this girl (woman) make an appearance on Happy Days???

Also, that man is incredibly humble. Makes him that much cooler!

-the love my husband has for me
- the smell of autumn
- moonlight against the snow in the morning before the sun rises
- the color of the ocean in ixtapa, mexico
- perfectly formed tiny flowers
- breezy summer nights under the stars

A complete stranger called me Leather Tuscadero once. When I told him I actually play bass, he nearly fell off his chair because I knew who he was talking about
