Inspiration please:

–noun
1.an inspiring or animating action or influence: I cannot write poetry without inspiration.
2.something inspired, as an idea.
3.a result of inspired activity.
4.a thing or person that inspires.
5.Theology.

My wife has a blog. Its called Simply Inspired Designs. Its pretty much a collection of things that inspire her. If you have not checked it out, I highly recommend it.

Lately, I've realized that I have not been inspired lately. To me this is a problem. I need inspiration. If you would like to help me with this, post something that is an inspiration to you. Perhaps its a book, a link, a picture, a group or organization, or perhaps its a quote. [Anything and everything wil be accepted!]

Thank you for your help in this matter!

I have a truly amazing story for you...that is beyond inspiring! Mandy Harvey is a completly Deaf jazz vocalist. She lost her hearing a few years ago and she still pushed though and sings...she even released an album. I read about her in JazzTimes. You should read the comments people left about her that will make you smile!
