Our bodies are our vehicles of life. They are ours to take care of. If we aren__ taking care of them, they show signs of stress and wear. If we are taking care of our bodies, they show signs of healing and resiliency. A healthy body is an inspired body, and an inspired body is a happy body.

Inspiration builds self-esteem, it builds communities, and it builds lives. It creates paths where previous paths didn__ exist.

We can let our goals motivate and inspire us, but we don__ want to let them determine our happiness or self worth.

Don__ just act with kindness, think with kindness.

We don__ come out of the womb thinking negatively about ourselves or others. We aren__ born talking ourselves out of our true needs and wants.

Not only is the experience of learning inspiring, the results are fulfilling.

Marriages don__ end simply because a lack of trust exists. Marriages more specifically end because foundational agreements were broken, disrespectful behavior occurred, healthy and honest communication is lacking, or not __eing seen or accepted_ has ensued for too long.

Inspiration is the most radiant and flourishing expression of our authenticity.

To build confident and kind kids, we must celebrate their uniqueness.

We are a reminder to ourselves and others that we, as individuals and as a community, are stronger than we could have ever known until the moment we endured more than we previously thought possible.

Inspiration may not solve one__ deepest or darkest problems, but it can be a light when no other light shines.

Just as we know when we strike a metaphorical nerve with someone, we also know when we tap into what inspires them.

The ocean, like life, always has movement. A sailboat with all its parts together, in its wholeness, can lead it's own way, cutting through challenging waves with strength, ease, purpose and determination, no matter the pull and push of the waves.

What if, when we are feeling less than happy, we were prescribed two genuinely inspiring experiences each day?

We all want to be seen not for the choices we made ten years ago, but for who we are today.
