Who Inspires You?
Tweet
I really hadn’t thought of this much until I read a blog post of the same name from Presentation Zen. Who of course linked to this great Sir Ken Robinson video.
So the blog post and the video got me thinking. Who (or what, etc.) inspires you?
Who: My Wife, God Daughter, Seth Godin,
What: The ocean, baseball, opportunities for change
Where: Bali, South Africa, Seattle
When: When I least want to be or expect it
Why: Inspiration leads to happiness
How: Think deep, think often, listen, connect, fail
Who/What’s on your list?

As we talking about inspiration, I have a theme of my blog called CI – challenge and inspire. I have collected quotes, phrases, stories, memories and odd and sods…. today I read a poem, it inspired me and I am sharing with you.
Tomorrow’s Child
Without a name; an unseen face
and knowing not your time nor place
Tomorrow’s Child, though yet unborn,
I met you first last Tuesday morn.
A wise friend introduced us two,
and through his sobering point of view
I saw a day that you would see;
a day for you, but not for me
Knowing you has changed my thinking,
for I never had an inkling
That perhaps the things I do
might someday, somehow, threaten you
Tomorrow’s Child, my daughter-son
I’m afraid I’ve just begun
To think of you and of your good,
Though always having known I should.
Begin I will to weigh the cost
of what I squander; what is lost
If ever I forget that you
will someday come to live here too.

Ray Anderson inspired this poem- he is the man with the “shining point of view” he is very ill and asks us all for prayer. Google Ray Anderson, Interface for more information about his good work.
