Who are you most inspired by?

Hi…
I hope all of you are doing well…!
There are a lot of things that are my inspiration and I watch them,
listen to them,
and try to witness them with my eyes in a hope that I might be able to have a moment with them and get something that not only inspires me,
but this entire world….!
Not always you get inspiration or this go getter attitude by talking to people or listening to inspiring stories but,
there are some which help you to focus,
change your ways,
and be a better person on a whole…!
In my case when I need some inspiration when I’m feeling down it can be something like a good song,
or,
listening to Sikh paths that are pre-recorded and available for this world to hear…!
There are dhadi jatha (groups with people who play sarangi(a stringed instrument akin to a sitar but shorter) and a dhadd( an hourglass shaped drum which is small and played like a clap box but using only fingers)…
They also have a person who speaks the lectures or the chorus Alone and as a group too…!
They recite in Panjabi and educate us about our past and things that happened that brought us to who we are today…!
The tales are told like ballads and its meaning explained nowadays if you visit a gurudwara and they are playing as we have less and less of Panjabi speaking and listening people and also the crowd that comes into a gurudwara is from a big spectrum as no one is denied entry into one…!
Let’s come back to the prompt;
I take inspiration from numerous sources it can range from something that I witness in the real world,
even something that is sent to me or gets seen by my eyes which can be Ai generated like a beautiful picture of a scenery or a person…!
The one thing that inspires me the most are the sings that I listen to,
and shows that I watch;
They provide me an insight into life,
and perspectives of women’s life which helps me to write something that happens in their life…!
Your inspiration can be a person or a group that you want to be like,
but,
in an essence my inspiration would never be someone who was born on this earth but a being that sent me to this earth by blowing this breath into my lungs which help me breathe and exist on this world…!
What are your source of inspiration…??
Do mention them in the comments…!
Cheers 🥂
Love Waakiye 🤍
