WHO INSPIRES ME?

Inspiration is not something we get from one single person or thing. It comes from a lot of sources. I get inspired by a lot of people in different phases of life. Few people I would like to mention here:

The first and the foremost person I got inspired by was my Grandfather. I have a lot of respect for the person he was. I have a lot of traits in me like a love for reading, being alone in my little world, we kind of had the same thinking process, search for deep meaning in life and all these traits I got from him. He had a lot of experience in life, something that I want to have like him. He had seen the world with different perspectives and mindsets. Although some of his dreams remained unfulfilled, I hopefully would fulfill them. He wasn’t the very loving person I know or I can say he doesn’t know how to show affection, just as I am. But he inspired me to do things on my own, not to be ever dependent on anyone. He taught me to be there for myself, to trust myself, work on my own. I feel if only I could make him proud someday with my work. He has been the continuous inspiration for having a life that I dream of and not giving up no matter what.

Second, I guess spiritual gurus inspires me a lot such as Jay Shetty, Gaur Gopal Das Ji, Sadhguru, are the few people who inspire me every day to be better, to find myself in all this chaos, to find peace within myself, to understand life. They have been an emotional supporter for me. They inspire me to be a better person, not for myself but the world. I never have seen them in person but their words have enough power to encourage me to know myself from inside. They have pushed me to focus on what’s going on inside and somehow they are the reason I give huge importance to what we say is “inner beauty”. I have stopped judging people on how they look and start seeing how they think, how sorted they are from inside. So, my point is that they inspire me on my spiritual path in life.

And last but not the least, it would be someone close to my heart. He had been an inspiration for me in many ways. Being productive is something I have been learning from him currently. Without saying he had been teaching me a lot. I learn something new every day from him. It’s like every day is something new for him and it automatically becomes new for me too. He is such a positive person that inspires me to be better in every way. He being the lively person, I am the opposite. Some days it feels annoying being that cheerful but that’s who he is and that’s what I adore. Overall, he inspires me to live more consciously and enjoy the present moment.

I have been looking for myself and when I’ll find it, I hope I could be someone’s inspiration too in their journey.
