Inspiration is a word thrown around on a daily basis, but what does it really mean? Inspiration literally means the inhaling of air; it is the act when air has been blown into something.

The way I see it is inspiration is CPR on our livelihood.

When creativity is dying, when life becomes mundane, when we are unhappy, when we need our horizons broadened, when we need a solution, or just an idea, inspiration causes us to come alive again. CPR is when your lungs and/or heart are not functioning properly. You need an outward source to supply air to enable your heart and/or lungs to start working again.
Inspiration opens our mind and lights the match that ignites passions within ourselves.
