I have been watching project runway (reruns I think) which is a guilty pleasure for me since I usually disdain the TV set as a total waste of time

Well, ceratinly my son inspires me to be a better example. And the older he gets, I'm sure the more he'll inspire me.
My wife inspires me to be a provider and defender for our family.
Jesus inspires me to look on others through God's eyes instead of my own when I'm capable of thinking beyond myself. I am also inspired with hope of my own redemption and sanctification.
Good fiction/sci-fi/fantasy inspires me to imagine worlds that aren't and dream dreams that are beyond my knowing.
Oh my goodness. I started watching that show, and as I turns out, I love it! I mean I'm a sucker for reality tv, but I didn't think I would like that show... and, I LOVED that episode. That was a great dress wasn't it... you could see where/how he got his inspiration.
I've never really thought about who or what inspires me though. I guess I get alot of inspiration from my friends... people around me. Sounds kinda cheesy, but God's love is an ispiration. Nature ispires me too... the beach, the sky, anything that I find beautiful.
No, it was quite a rather long time ago. The episode was entitled all things and dealt with Scully running into a man from her past when Mulder was out of town.
The general idea I picked up from it is that there are signs all around us and if I can just sit still and pay attention I learn a lot from the universe. Oddly enough, in one of my very first RCIA classes last fall they started talking about the same thing, only instead of "the universe" they said "God".
Yes there's a lot to be said for being observant...This is a really really good point.
I don't watch the X Files but Mike does occasionally. I wonder if he has seen that episode.
I suppose we will have to agree to disagree about the God/Universe idea...to me they are distinctly different as creator and created...But I didn't actually set out for this to be a religious conversation. Well. The more I think about it the more I realize that it is impossible to discuss this topic without religion coming into it at least a little bit.
i find that relationships inspire me. whether they were bad, good, nonexistant, essential, romantic, friendly, confusing, or clear - they all lead to how i feel and how my life is. so that is what drives me, what pushes me, what inspires me...
How beautiful! I agree, relationships are very inspiring...don't even get me started on all the ways my husband inspires me. ;) I could write pages of entries but I will spare you that! :) Thanks for answering.

To me, those terms are fairly interchangeable.
