Daily Question, August 21

What is inspiring me right now?

  • KC

    Listening to lively children playing on the street is inspiring after a bit of a tough day.

    Also a young team of dermatologists who worked kindly and skillfully together to remove a small slice of my arm today, They were patient, kind and thoughtful in trying to make an aesthetic incision, and took great care with the stitches to make it a tasteful scar. Time will tell. That said, I am grateful for the human kindness and skill they brought to their day, and my arm!

  • Jill

    Honestly, not much, in a bit of a funk. :/ Everyone I know is struggling, bad stuff is going down on a local, national and global level. All I want to do is eat junk food and cry. Sorry, just being honest.

  • Journey

    This website and the wonderful people and their daily reflections on the questions posted are an inspiration. Love the message for today about opening all doors as we dont know when dawn will come. Also love what someone said below about problems being lifes way of helping us align with what is best for us.

  • Jeric

    The beauty and strength of hope inspire me. To know that life is working for me, not against me.

  • Elizabeth M Jones

    The work that the young people are doing all over the world to bring attention to climate change. That is inspirational.

  • Amor fati

    Friends who refuse to stick their heads in the sand about the destruction of nature happening right now.

  • Kat

    My client, who told me that I have a responsibility to share my wisdom with people. He’s inspiring me to write a book!

    • Sheila

      Kat, that would be awesome for you to write a book! I know from your blog about the digital candle, your writing is very beautiful! 🦋

  • Hot Sauce

    The fact that the earth produces herbs that can be used for medicinal healing is actually pretty awe-inspiring when you stop and think about it. It shows how interconnected and interdependent all life is with other forms of life.

  • Walton Dunbar

    Exploring this website. Learning again that my prayer is breathing in and out the ruah of The Creator- ,Crative one that is the personal More.

  • Mica

    Being able to visit these gratefulness sites, and today’s quote, which I’ve added to my file of inspiring quotes:

    Not knowing when the dawn will come, I open every door.

  • Debra

    Right now, walking. I am so grateful for that amazing gift. Fell and am gimping around but it could have been so much worse and it wasn’t. Giving my Stones ticket to a friend because I cannot chance being in a crowd of 90,000. Her reaction of ‘pure joy’ when she learned I was gifting this to her, gave me such peace, joy and love. It is healing me. An inspirational moment.

    • Walton Dunbar

      I am grateful that she has a friend like you. I too am limping from a fall but grateful this gives me time to reflect on Falling Upward ala Richard Roar.Bless you in your healing journey sister.

  • GCharlotte

    I am inspired by the weather that the nature of God provided this day! I feel alert tempered away from the habit of spending. I am enjoying the sun and humid skyline and the fact that our side did not get the expected thunderstorms!

  • The Night Queen

    There are many downfalls to our social media age but also so many wonderful things come from it. I’ve seen from a distance people I was friends with years ago blossoming, achieving goals and making good changes in their lives – some of which I questioned if the ability was there. Seeing these grow into wonderful human beings proves inspirational as I know I can also continue to grow, achieve my own personal goals and continue making positive changes.

  • Samuel

    Several of my friends and I share a Prayer Breakfast every Wednesday morning at a local diner in Bryson City. Each week or of us will have a prepared Devotion for the group. Christine’s devotion today was about how our omnipotent God chose always to teach His disciples and others by utilizing humble stories and parables when He appeared among mankind as Jesus Christ. It was inspiring to realize how much power a simple story can have when used as a teaching tool…

    Having just woken up, coffee in hand, Gratefulness.org. is my inspiration.
    I am inspired and encouraged by the freshness of a new day, new start and the “words of wisdom”, I find here daily.
    Thank you to all who participate and share here and to the gratefulness.org team who make this sanctuary possible. I would be lost without it. You have enriched my life.
    Blessings to All…❤️🙏

  • Doug

    A large project that will require detailed thought and thoroughness to complete. Much better than a dull series of days at work ahead. Earphones, check. Great playlist, check. All set to go!

  • Ed

    My friend Paul Revenko-Jones died yesterday, unexpectedly. We had just begun a project to share our life experiences with young technicians. Paul was one of the great teachers in piano technology. When we talked my world became bigger, not just about pianos but with depth of humanity. Paul left us lots of well-written material. We’ll carry on the work and reach out to others in his behalf. Remembering Paul helps me stand taller.

    • Walton Dunbar

      It sounds that Paul was so blessed to have a friend like you as well. May you know the comfort of God in your time of healing your grief wound Ed.

    • Serafina

      I am so very sorry for the unexpected loss of your beloved friend Paul. May his memory, and material, continue to be a blessing.

  • Sarah

    I am actually feeling pretty lazy this am. If I had to say what inspired me this am it would be seeing some positive changes in my life related to dumping some bad habits.

  • Antoinette

    Life and the gift of life is inspirational.y practice of compassion and loving kindness is a foiling inspiration. The curiosity of the heart fills me with propelling inspiration.

  • Sheila

    This line from a Will Bowen quote, “Whatever problems you are facing right now, they are just life trying to help you realign with the best that is possible for you”. I am so blessed! Life is good and beautiful! Thank-you God! Wishing everyone a peaceful day!🌻

    • Wiltrud

      Your text is my inspiration today, dear Sheila :))

      • Sheila

        Dear Wiltrud, I am so glad that it is an inspiration for you, thank-you for kindly telling me! The Will Bowen quote has helped me so much! God does know our every need. Blessings to you, dear Wiltrud.💕
