.I.N.S.P.I.R.A.T.I.O.N.S.

I am pretty sure most of you agree with me that inspirations are what each of us looks for in our lives.

We look up to successful people and their wisdom with the wish to become just as successful, or even more. We have mentors to guide us where we need to and should go in our careers. We put our faith in certain religions. We create goals for ourselves... Just like that, everything we do in life is inspired by one thing or another... one person or another.

And I am not an exclusion. Like I said a few entries earlier, I am thankful for the people around me because they let me know that I am not alone. Some of them are closer to me than others, but no matter who they are, they inspire me in many ways.


I have said it before and I will say it again. The first people to come are my family, especially my mom, my two dads, and my baby brother who are always there for me. They give me the inspirations and unconditional love I need to live every day a better person. They have taught me to give more than take, to think before act, to act more than talk, to care about the people and things around me, and to love with all my heart. Everyday, they let me know they are proud of me to remind me that I am on the right path.

My closed friends have also been inspiring me to live and laugh every day. They let me know I am loved even though I am imperfect in many ways so that I can give back love in return. By being great friends, they inspire me to become one.

Inspirations can come in many forms and shapes. They can come at the most unexpected times just to remind you that you have what it takes to move on the right way.

Recently I was inspired so much by a good friend's blog. I personally do not just write blogs simply to tell people how my day was or is, I want my blogs to share my true feelings, and the person's blog does just that. There is so much emotions and heart in every single entry, and it gave me an idea and a reason to restart my blogging habit. I did not know what I would do when I stared reading it, but the more and more I get into it, the more I feel like I have long forgotten how to express myself...

So next time when you talk to someone or read something, listen closely, pay more attention, and try to find the inspirational stories behind the words. You might be amazed.

My ears, eyes, and heart are still open to new opportunities and inspirations. I have many friends or mentors that I look up to or go for advices. From them, I know I can learn what I need.

I believe that "Life doesn't give you the people you want. Instead it gives you the ones you need, to teach you, to hurt you, to love you, and to make you exactly the way you should be..." like someone once said.

I am now writing entries to inspire myself to be happy and enjoy life every day. You can call me a "blog addict," but it makes me feel much much better to put my thoughts and feelings into words. I am even happier when I can share them with you. And I would be extremely happy if the words I write can inspire you in some way, just like you have inspired me.
