Something to do with life, Is it bad? Is it good? Where does inspiration come from? is it a feeling or something that just happens when someone does something heroic or is famous or even just your everyday average person living through the tough times who picks themselves back up.
Wherever this comes from i want to know because im lacking inspiration, i need the motivation and inspiration to be something great and do something great for the world to help someone in need and give back to the community. "when i grow up i want to be a fireman", i remember saying that in grade 2. As kids in primary school or just general growing up we have no idea why we choose to be something in the future and how hard it is to be something big. As kids we live in small spaces where we are taking in all the good times and have no clue what is happening on the outside.
So when does inspiration kick in? do we go out looking for inspiration? something that will turn our heads in a different direction, e.g. make someone bad become good. Is it that easy or is it hard almost like finding true love except half the time its just luck. As we develop are we thinking about a future something that we want to be when we get old enough to follow the path we generate in our minds. Is that inspiration? or is it someone?
Someone is doing what you dream of so you follow.. is that how it begins? They become something great doing what you dream of so you follow.. is that how it begins? They are a benchmark and you want to get there you want to be like them so you push yourself to the bare edge hoping you can be them or better. If it is are we suppose to look for a curtain someone in the area in which you want to follow?
Its almost like a life cycle: They become great --> so you do everything you can to be them/be like them or greater --> you reach them and become greater --> someone else looks for inspiration and they find you --> your the new benchmark --> they set out to do what you did back when you wanted inspiration.
Am i close to touching inspiration .. is what ive said got anything to do with it? i want to become inspired and not sure how to go about it. I wish it were easy but my gut says its going to be hard so someone out there tell me how to go about it please.

great post!!
i think i can add to think and hopefully help you out a bit.
admirers and imitators make up this world.
if you admire, you imitate. but if you are THE admirer and not the imitator then you your inspiration will come NOT from people, but from the world as a whole. you find your own meaning to life.
imitators admire what other people do and try add to it by think like the ones they admire. and there is nothing wrong with that at all.
its surely more difficult to be the admirer than the imitator.
now onto inspiration. this all comes down to what you are interested in. my inspirations come from authors. authors arnt super heroes, nor do they save lives. but there has always been this attraction with my heart and the words people write.
inspiration can be found from everywhere. lietrally. rocks, raindrops, people, skies, the supernatural, space, imagination, everywhere. and youll notice that your going to be naturally attracted to something or someone and try to make an understanding of it.
only this year i decided to take up journalism. a competitive job, but if i keep at it, i know ill get somewhere. journalism takes me places. i really want to visit Africa. im inspired by Africa, the forests, the people, the politics, the atmosphere. its just so different i want to experience it first hand.
your ambitions for the future come naturally. just do not make the mistake i made (that i corrected). DO NOT DO WHAT OTHER PEOPLE WHAT YOU TO DO. your you. your you for a reason, so be you and do what you want to do.
