Finding Inspiration

I try to believe in humanity and see the good in others, but I find that many people can be insincere. The world is greedy and everybody wants something. People are power hungry and they will do whatever it takes to get to the top. They don’t care whose ass they kiss or who they have to trample on. We have all been lied to, manipulated and let down by somebody else at some point, and it makes us lose hope in others.

The people that inspire me the most are every day people who try to make a difference, in their world. They are the ones that are consistently going out of their comfort zones to help others. I am not inspired by celebrities or people that have a lot of money, and are successful in life. I am inspired by people that have nothing and still give back because their hearts are in the right place. They have nothing else to lose, give or sacrifice but themselves.

I am also inspired by my inner hatred. Yes, I hate a lot of things. I hate poverty, racism, war... etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. I don’t hate people, but I hate a lot of things that people do and how the world is run. However, my hatred often brings out my compassion and love. I use my inner hatred to inspire myself, to help make the world a better place. Everyone is pissed about something but not everyone uses their anger for good. I think that people have to find that balance between love and hate. If you let your anger overcome your common sense – you lose.
