This is a very broad one, for me at least. I look up to a lot of people and for different things. I would have to say that right now, the person who inspires me is a girl I work with. She is 24, has three kids, pregnant, works full time and had a house she is making work... A lot of other background stuff there. She is so dang strong nd still smiles at the end of the day.

I look up to her.

@passionateBeing6922 That's beautiful. One of my inspirations is my dad. Even though he's really strict he's taught a lot of things. He works really hard. He has a few medical conditions with his legs and spine, but he never fails to provide for the family. He gives graciously to people who are in need. God's really blessed me with amazing parents.

Someday when I have a family, I want to be able to work as hard as my father and support my family the way he does. He inspires me to be the best, work towards bigger goals and be kind and helpful to others.

My grandpa. One the most genuinely helpful people I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. He helped with no expectations and is still loved and remembered fondly by an entire village he brought potable water to :) I hope I can one day live up to his name!

First off...I love thos particular thread. Thanks for thinking of it "passionateone". Someone who inspired me recently was a woman I work with who is a full time psychologist as well as teaches a full time caseload at a university. One of her adult sons has a dehibilitating autoimmune disease and his wife was not taking care of him. He expresserd a desire to move back home for awhile and with much grace and dedication this woman and her husband brought him back home which requires an unbelievable amount of daily care. She and her husband are vegetarian, but her son is a big meat eater and so she preapres two seperate menus almost every day. They have to help feed him many things, help him care for himself in the most basic ways, and manage his health care appointments. And she does this with so much grace, tenderness, and also honesty. She does not deny at all how difficult it has made life, how tired she is, and how sometimes she wishes she could get back to her previous rythym of life. So thank-you P for being an inspiration to me.

@passionateBeing6922 For me its really everyone that works so hard on 7 cups to improve themselves to learn new things and to know that the road they are on is not always easy BUT that they are all capable of reaching their final destination!!
