My inspiration today comes from a little 6 yr old boy

I found this amazing story and I just wanted to share it with all you guys, I hope you find it as amazing as I do!!


Last week I took my children to a restaurant.  My six-year-old son asked if he could say grace.
 As we bowed our heads he said,  "God is good. God is great.  Thank you for the food,  and I would even thank you more if  Mom gets us ice cream for dessert.  And Liberty and justice for all!
 Amen!"
 Along with the laughter from the other customers nearby I heard a woman remark,  "That's what's wrong with this country.  Kids today don't even know how to pray.  Asking God for ice-cream! Why, I never!"
 Hearing this, my son burst into tears and asked me,  "Did I do it wrong? Is God mad at me?"
 As I held him and assured him  that he had done a terrific job and  God was certainly not mad at him, an elderly gentleman approached the table.  He winked at my son and said,
 "I happen to know that God thought that was a great prayer."
 "Really?" my son asked.
 "Cross my heart," the man replied.
 Then in a theatrical whisper he added (indicating the woman whose remark had started this whole thing), "Too bad she never asks God for ice cream.  A little ice cream is good for the soul sometimes."

 Naturally, I bought my kids ice cream at the end of the meal.  My son stared at his for a moment
 and then did something I will remember the rest of my life. He picked up his sundae and without a word, walked over and placed it in front of the woman. With a big smile he told her,
 "Here, this is for you.Ice cream is good for the soul sometimes;  and my soul is good already."

This six year old is so amazing and inspires me to try my hardest to show others the good in the life!

Today My Insparation Comes From A Song By Freddi Starr - True Colours!

This is the Song.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sT3hkO18vg

These are the Lyrics:

I see you're true colours shinning through I see your true colors and that why I love you 

I see your (one for the ghetto) true colours shinning through (straight up) I see your true (I am make it out) colours and that's why I love you…

Yo father forgive we all trying to survive were we live I'd rather feed the homeless and take time talk to the kidsShow them that life ain't no walk on the bridge Damn as hard it is when I be dreaming I be talking to Big In my hood it ain't no yellow brick road you hear the shots echo Sneakers hanging from a telephone poll In my ghetto there ain't no rainbow or pots o gold But there was love from the family when times were cold I sit an analyse the world from my roof seen the hope in the eyes of the trouble youth A good killa kept a burner in his bubble goose a mother less child lost in these streets lose In the murder days these are rainy days my man got poped at an early age 

His college fund saved flipped into his grave they say the good die young were headed for them pearly gates

I see you're true colours shinning through I see your true colors and that why I love you I see your true colours shinning through I see your true colors and that's why I love you… 

Yo they say this love wasn't meant to be Two people from different worlds we wasn't be It must have been faith you were sent to me Will make it threw these hard times eventually The standard fight brought by faith not by sight We all the same color when u turn out the lights I take the sunshine with the pain Grab my Sara gone sad that when it rains No French kept the food on the window painWe all breath the same air so we all the sameI am trapped in this ghetto maze trying to make it out If you don't know me don't judge me what you talking bout I am dividable by broken dreams Single moms you my heroes you my queens To get my mom out the hood that is my hopes and dreams to reach my son to be a solja by any means

I see you're true colours shinning through I see your true colors and that why I love you 

I see your true colours shinning through I see your true colors and that's why I love you…

This Song is from the movie, "Save the Last Dance". The movie is a great movie of acceptance and love! This movie on its own is an inspiration!

This particular version of the song inspires me it's honest! 

The first verse tells us the story of a child in the ghetto, who knows that life is hard, but it can be good. it says that all you need is the "love from the family" and that he can see "hope in the eyes of the troubled youth" He wants to be able to help these youth, (Which is what i want to do) 

The second verse tells us of societies social expectations of relationships. And how they defy what everyone else thinks and do what is right for them! and states this with the quote "we're all the same colour when you turn out the lights."

with the line "we all breathe the same air so we all the same" he wants the world to understand that we are all equal and we are all the same and we are all trying to be the best we can be. 

He says that people who have things a little tough are his heros. i think this is because he thinks tehy have so much strength and him living in the ghetto most of the single mums are probably single due to their partners being shot. 

This song inspires me to help people who are less fortunate than me. Like people have helped me. 

Pick Your Colour!!

Be Happy and Inspired :)
