What inspires you?

As a writer, I'm inspired by everything from thoughts, to friends, and life experiences. As a mother, I'm inspired by my children's happiness and their desires. As a wife, I'm inspired (this is true, so don't roll your eyes) by my husband's ability to look past when I'm being unreasonable (I can't say that I do the same. LOL!). In life, I'm inspired by others. I'm inspired by their abilities, their achievements, their strength when dealing with overwhelming situations, their ability to give and to receive--the list goes on and on.
