“The greatest inspiration is often born of desperation.” -Comer Cotrell, American Entrepreneur (1931- )
In the face of hardship and disaster, one most often finds the most inspiring people you will ever come across. For many when we reach the point of desperation we find ourselves over whelmed and wanting to give up, but lucky for us many others find their true voice and power to lead in the most trying times. Mothers who do anything they can to ensure their child is not only fed and clothed, but has access to education, despite the fact they live in a refugee camp. A father who sells all he has to ensure his child is fed, while he goes hungry. A young boy who stands courageous in the face of rebels soldiers so that his sisters may run to safety. It is the most desperate of times that bring forth the most unknowing, and unhonored hero’s. It is this inspiration that is rarely shared, but impacts more than one
However inspiration does not need to always come from desperation, and to see that children are never without inspiration to learn, to dream and never stop achiving we must ensure they are never without everyday heros. It often only takes one simple action to ispire a child, show them love and compassion, show them understanding, teach them to never give up and most of teach them to dream. When you inspire a child to dream and achieve, you are not just helping them to plant the seeds of a dream, but helping them to grow a future. When you inspire youth, you are inspiring the leaders of tomorrow!
