Inspiration, Strength, Triumph

Greetings Fellow Listeners!

Today I find my mind wandering to what inspires us as individuals? Who determines how strong of an individual we will be or are? And what does personal triumph mean?

All of these questions I suppose are what some call the meaning of life? If you can figure these three things out, then you have answered the meaning to your life. I am not sure I totally agree with that, however I do know that there is no other feeling associated with the three of these words.

Such as, when you are who you want to be (and I am talking the real deal here, when you actually love yourself and can look in the mirror and say I moved my own mountain today!) and you are living to your fullest potential, someone else sees that and they become inspired by your story. They will begin to love themselves and move their own mountains. That is truly a gratifying moment. I can't think of another feeling (and I could be wrong) that is associated with inspiring someone else to be all they can be!

Secondly, who determines how strong of a person we are or will be? My answer to this, is only we can decide that for ourselves. As individuals we can only control how WE feel, ourselves. We can't control what other people think about how we feel, or act about how we feel, we can only control ourselves. Once we have all realized this, we will become that stronger person. Life is seriously hard and everyone doesn't play the game fairly, but those of us who try, will be rewarded how our inner physic thinks we should be rewarded! You are what you think! To be considered a strong person, one who people can look up to and follow is also its own unique feeling.

And lastly, triumph. I have read a lot recently about how does one determine themselves successful? In my opinion, it's a mental thing for each individual. Each individual needs to take stock in themselves. Stop, look, listen to your life and realize that you may already be successful? And triumphant! Also, being triumphant isn't a one time deal, it will happen a million times through everyone's life. It is something that can happen over small stuff or big stuff and is solely in the eye of the beholder. Being triumphant in your own mind, is a feeling like not other, too!So in your daily life, be inspiring to others, be strong to yourself, and look in the mirror each and every day and say I am triumphant! Congratulate yourself!

Celebrating,
