I learned recently from a quote of Queen Elizabeth II (a sadness to be without her) that the word INSPIRATION also means “to fill ones lungs.” All these years I was under the impression that INSPIRATION just meant; to motivate, to stimulate, to inspire, to give an idea. So now I wonder after all these years working with others and suggesting ideas, did I truly INSPIRE others when they said, “thank you for the INSPIRATION.” Were they just gasping for air to fill their lungs from being constantly exasperated, irritated? WOW!!!

I apologize for making you all gasp to fill your lungs. I understand what you went through. When I heard this meaning for INSPIRATION, I too gasped for air in complete surprise. I am now very suspicious of someone saying that I INSPIRED them. Oh well, live and learn.

DO NOT STOP IN SHARING AND TEACHING OTHERS. JUST MAKE SURE THAT NO ONE IS FILLING THEIR LUNGS WITH AIR, AND GASPING. IF INSPIRATION IS USED, QUESTION THE MEANING. SERIOUSLY!! ALWAYS SHARE WHAT YOU HAVE INTELLECTUALLY. ALWAYS INSPIRE OTHERS AND LET THEM TAKE A BREATH

TAKE CARE, ALWAYS STAY WELL, ALWAYS STAY HEALTHY. HAVE FAITH. THANK YOU.
