Emitting Inspiration


Normally, we are inspired by beauty. A beautiful story, song, art, scenery...etc. Sometimes, personalities inspire us. Bravery, endurance, patience, and you name it. However, rarely, we get inspired from unknown sources. This particular kind of impression does not take a long time to form and often comes unexpectedly from strangers.  I guess we could call it as random inspiration.



I have encountered yet another person with unusual impression. I only saw him for seventy five minutes. He was a lecturer whose objective was to deliver a clear lesson on a certain subject in math. An ordinary-looking man. There was no witty joke. No charisma and no crash were involved. Yet, at the end of the lecture, I was amazed simply by the person, who he was.



Something from him was breaking into my mental world. And I just felt very strange, as if I came to a foreign country for the first time. This phenomenon was fascinating, since these strange inspirational feelings were absolutely sudden and strong.



As I am writing this post, I am having a great hard time to put my thoughts together. Here is what lasts from the process of rethinking of rethinking of paragraphs that are now erased.



The essence of him, hisness, may have caused this random inspiration.



The way he spoke, the way his handwriting was, the way he treated his audience, the way he stood, and just the way he lived in that seventy five minutes was purely just himself. He the person as a whole vibrated and emitted lights, his own lights. Very consistent to his own essence. I wish to emit my own inspirational lights to others.



What are your random experiences?
