What inspires you? was created by
in life general, or however you see it.

for me, the longest standing source of inspiration has been rationality/intellectuality/efficacy as the core philosophy which after everything else comes from. much like new confucianism.

but right now, my greatest inspiration comes from following my heart and true will. i think the term force is both of those summed up into one. heart being the more immediate deep true feelings of yours and true will being how you really should feel if you were true to yourself.

also im trying to form a singular view of self where all those things are summed into one whole instead of slicing myself into shards..

im also inspired of my feminine like yet male sexuality, with a flare of delicate cute innocence.

intellectual blabbering is something i find inspiring as personality charasteristic, which can come in many colours.

what inspiration have you found from jediism? and other sources/kinds of inspirations? what charasteristics in people inspire you?

Looking at beautiful artwork always inspires me. Or reading a fascinating book. Or listening to a really good song :)

Mountains.

Mountains, valleys, the flora and fauna. The stars and planets in the sky, the streaking meteors. Those wonders of nature inspire me a GREAT deal.

People don't inspire me. But sometimes their ideas or actions do.

Jediism has inspired me to find peace when I thought it was lost from me.

Anything and everything, but mostly whatever I find funny (which is almost everything).

The ability that people can do anything if they put their mind to it.

So many wonderful inventions, artwork, music, and words. Amazing stuff from a sack of carbon based life form.

For me looking at the stars in a cloudless summers evening near a lake. Certain conditions as the weather does also inspire me. A warm spring rain. And when certain things in my environment are in place I think deeply and stay in the moment. What doesn't inspire me is snow..sorry Santa, Michigan or who it may concern...never gonna happen. When I see snow on the TV. I do think.."oh thats pretty" but that's it. When I wake up in the early morning and see a sun rise. Or in the evening maybe after going to a carnival and see the sun set, also dramatically inspiring.
But most of all is my fellow Temple members, Friends and Family take the time and share thoughts, things that concern them and good laughter inspires me most of all.

May the force be with you
