In human life there are many sources or I would say infinite sources of inspiration to become
better in life. And there is no comparison between one source and the other. I personally believe
we should never look down on anyone, irrespective of how small he/she is. Our creator is so
intelligent with his creation that He well assorted the talent on this earth.
There is one beautiful sloka about 'Inspiration' from one of the holiest scriptures of Hindu religion, Rig Veda -
"Ano Bhadraaha Kritao Yantu Vishvataha."
(Let noble thoughts come to us from all directions)
Basically, it is just one thought, one idea, one incident and one second that takes to ignite the fire. The first and foremost inspiration a person experiences is to 'live' from the moment he/she is born.
As any other Indian cinema goer, I follow lot of movie stars' lives closely (as in I read the 'news' about 'em). An young hero from Telugu (my mother tongue) film industry revealed his thoughts on a TV show after learning how one of his hardcore fans (he is a special kid) inspired from his first movie and then discussed about what goes through his mind when he performs in front of a camera - in his words - "When we (stars) dance/act/fight in front of the camera, the only thing we see is a piece of glass (lens). Most of the times, I think how my performance is, would someone like it (behind the camera)? Would someone like my hair style / dressing style? And when I look at such people (pointing at his fan), I can say, I am happy that I have at least inspired one soul". Suddenly, I realized that a person whom I really don't care about (as a hero), can really transform someone's life to betterment. Then I understood that inspiration can flow from any person, thing or event to another person at any second!! It is that ONE moment, that really changes life forever!!
