A word can be basic or complex, they open the doors to millions of other words that make sentences, that form paragraphs, and on a bigger scope, form communication or language. You still with me? Basically, the simplicity of the word, word, is actually in fact, arguably as complex as the Tower of Bable.

Our language expands everyday. Words become popular, which gives them merit, such as, gunna, handsy, half-ass. But I want to mention one word in particular, inspiration. Google's definition is, the process of being mentally stimulated to do or feel something, especially to do something creative.

Its definition carries such depth and reflection. Inspiration can mean something different from one person to the next, it's like a snowflake, no two are alike.

Personally, Who inspires me, is a means to what inspires me. My family has inspired me to be more, because I was given the opportunity to do more.

Your story may be different, you may be more fortunate than I am or less fortunate, it doesn't really matter. As long as you know who or what inspired that drive and enabled you to grow, well. That's all you really need.

What inspires you?

Who inspires you?

How and why do they inspire you?

Not to sound like a reading response question, but if you take a minute to think about where you are in life and how you got there, the answers that come to you, just may surprise you.
