You never know who you may be inspiring or encouraging to tap back into latent or new talents just by being you. Sometimes we forget that people may not always speak on how you inspire them, but yet they are, and it helps them to smile more or be their authentic selves.
Today, a former schoolmate expressed how my return to blogging inspired her. I was truly shocked because I was impressed with her recently shared writings and agreed with so many of her viewpoints. That’s the beauty of creativity and the arts; you can express yourself and inadvertently inspire others. It’s the same way with acts of kindness too. One small act can be the catalyst for other acts of kindness, compassion, and consideration.
When you share pieces of yourself for your own self-satisfaction rather than for applause, you often reach a broader and more sincere audience. You will often also position yourself to be poured back into by people who admire your transparency and find commonalities among your expressions and experiences. If only we lived in a world where more people honored the beauty of someone living in their authenticity and being free to be open, honest, and vulnerable without making themselves prey to someone’s judgment and condescension.
Writing is so freeing, but you have to do it with the understanding that some won’t like or respect what you have to say. It’s a good thing I don’t do it for the applause but to free myself of the thoughts and ideas that burden, excite, and even incite me. So, if you’re considering writing or think no one will care what you have to say, do it anyway. You’d be surprised who you might inspire or who may fan your flames of inspiration even higher!~micaiah
