Hello all,
I have been in a bit of a reflective mood lately after watching Kindness Diaries, which had me thinking about inspiration; what inspires me and what I have done, or can do, to inspire or help others? What inspires you all? Have you done anything to inspire others, even just a kind gesture lately? If you wouldn't mind sharing, I think it would be a cool thing to see from as many who are willing.
People like say Craigslist Joe, or Leon from Kindness Diaries, inspire me in that they show me how the world can be, and how free the world has the ability to be if you have the courage to venture out there. Freegans too. John Walsh showed me one person can try to save the world, and actually do it. My family inspires me to believe in myself. Granted there are many more people and ideas I draw inspiration from, but not necessary. Though, I would be remiss if I didn't say Einstein....I want to be that smart. And the WF poster, The Metal King, Chris Reager. For those of you here that interacted with Chris Reager, I am sure he inspired yall like he did me. He was a kind soul whom never minded sharing his knowledge and a kind uplifting word to anyone. He deserved a special shoutout. Miss you Reager. \m/
I live a mundane life, but try to implement these things a tad, to maybe push my life in the direction to be able to help others one day. I don't do much to inspire, currently, but hopefully that changes soon. I try to make people smile randomly, try to talk to them when they are down, or thank them for just talking with me and being good, nice people. I want them to know that what they do is appreciated and matters. I had a guy come up and give me some love for my shirt at dinner the other night, and if I could have afforded it, I wanted to buy his and his mom's meals, but I couldn't, and that was a bad feeling, even in a good thought. The dichotomy of life.
Anyhoo, I look forward to seeing what you all have to say. Thank you guys here for being kind to me and interacting with these weird threads I make. There are some fantastic thoughts and minds in this place, past and present. Have a nice day. Much love.
