![]() Launched to Bring Inspiration Susie Caron (c) 2021 I’ve been absent for a bit and excited to share something for you. Following our Jan-Feb. 2021 Launch, I took some time off to attend an artists' conference online, to ponder and to paint. Now I want to share what’s coming up for you on Susie Caron’s Pet & Wildlife Inspiration. ![]() Inspiration Mondays Lyrics from a Carpenter’s song tells us “Rainy days and Mondays always gets me down.” I don’t want this to be true for you anymore. Beginning 3/15/21 I will share Inspiration Mondays with you and seek inspiration from you. Every Monday, I’ll invite you to engage in discussions and share all things that inspire you, including our pets and other animals. ![]() What is Inspiration? You know inspiration as an idea. Here's one definition: A sudden brilliant, creative, or timely idea. (Oxford Dictionary online, #1.) But that’s only the first part. Let's add this: After noticing an inspiring idea, we need to bring it in to our heart and mind. Merriam-Webster online dictionary adds Inspire came from the Latin inspiratus, meaning to breathe into or inspire. Later, in the 16th century the word changed in English to mean draw air into the lungs. There's a third part to recognize. Consider this definition from the Oxford Dictionary online. The process of being mentally stimulated to do or feel something, especially to do something creative. (Oxford Dictionary online, #2) In other words, for an inspiration to be of any use to improve our lives and the lives of others, we need to do something with it. Whether inspired by a person, place, pet, or thing, we need to recognize it, bring it into our system, allow it to grow in us then use it to help ourselves and others. ![]() Where Can You Find Inspiration? Think about these questions and briefly write down your answers. Where do you look for inspiration? Why do you want to be inspired? Who inspires you? What inspires you? How do your pets, or perhaps wildlife stories inspire you? When you feel inspired, what do you do?
