An attitude of graditude!. One day I was feeling low, my 20 year old son had passed away & I knew I had done a great job at handling my life but I was just feeling lost & empty & disconnected!. My husband & I went to a subshop & I felt so bad I knew I had to appreciate the good I had in my life!. I looked up & saw this family that had about 4 kids!. I started to think of how thankful I was that I didn't have to take care of anyone except myself because I didn't feel like helping anyone!. I then thought about how hard it must be for this family to have to care for so many kids!. Then I stopped myself because I knew that was negative!. I think our thoughts are telepathic & we can bless people or curse them!. I stopped thinking about it being hard & thought about how wonderful it was that these parents were such good people giving so much to their children!. Then the family got up & cleaned off their trays!. The littlest one ran down the aisle strait to me!. The family was busy cleaning up & hadn't noticed!. He was about 2 years old!. He reached up to me as if to ask me to put him on my lap!. I sat him on my lap & just sat there holding this child!. It was so beautiful!. I felt like my son had sent him to cheer me up!. When the father discovered the missing toddler he was horrified that this child could be disturbing me!. He came over & apologized!. I just looked up gently & said "No, this is perfect, thank you"!. I knew that the father knew, that his son had come to lift me up!.!.!.I find inspiraton in everything, everywhere, all the time!. When we open our mind to recieve, we recieve!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

This may seem unique, but inspirational thoughts seem to come to me when I need them!. J!.P!. Sartre's "Bad Faith" for example, gives me inspiration to resist pressure from sales-people to, well, my peers!.

Plato's cave story gives me inspiration when I feel like an outsider while giving a presentation of any kind!.

The sayings of Jesus, the adventures of Siddhartha Gautama, or even catchy old sayings (it's the 2nd mouse that gets the cheese) inspire me given the situation!.

I guess inspiration comes to me from different places, rather than me looking for it in a single place or from a single person!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
