Inspiration..spiritual inspiration. This is what you have all been waiting for and this is also where it becomes controversial. I DO believe that we all need some type of inspiration. Most folks feels that spiritual inspiration is the answer, and honestly, if that helps you, then so be it. I am not here to hate on anyone’s religion. Personally, I am not a believer, but I also do not judge. If it makes you feel better, then more power to ya.
People NEED inspiration in their lives. Some need it to get through a tough time–the loss of a loved one, starting a new job, raising your children. Others need much more inspiration. These people struggle with disorders and/or addictions and need a kick in the ass just to get outta bed. We tend to rely on a higher power to help get us through these difficult events. If that helps you, again, I am not against it. The issue being, one cannot solely rely on someone or something else to get you through. Self-reliance, in my opinion, is a much better answer.
I am not saying to completely shut everything else off, lock yourself in a room and not come out until you see the light. And, supplementing with a dose of spirituality can also be helpful. Again, the issue is relying on someone or something else to get you through. YOU need to put in the work. YOU need to get yourself through. YOU need to get up off your lazy ass and do something about your situation.
Talk to others about your problems, then do something about it. Join a group of people with similar issues, then do something about it. Go to church or temple or synagogue or mosque, or whatever you idiots do, then do something about it. Read posts online (from reliable sources of course), then do something about it. Self-reliance will not be the only method you use, but it should be a big part of it.
The moral here kids, is that spiritual inspiration is not a bad thing, but it CANNOT be the ONLY thing. You need to do things for yourself. Feeling sorry for yourself and expecting, even wishing, for others to get you out…is a failure. Realize the strength that you have inside of yourself. Use that strength as a weapon. Become the best version of you. And, if you need some spiritual inspiration along the way, so be it.
