InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration
January 30, 2025
This is Marie T. Russell, publisher of InnerSelf.com wishing you a day of being willing to take risks and grow (today and every day).
Most of our fears are based on our imagination. What we fear usually is not in the present, but in an imagined future and based on the past. Being willing to trust the present (and the future) is an important part of growing into our full potential
The focus for today is:
I am willing take risks and grow.
Today's inspiration is written by Joyce Vissell, co-author of the book: A Couple of Miracles.
Every once in a while, someone will enter your life and leave a lasting impression. They are remembered even long after they die. The lessons learned from them become a permanent part of your heart.
This is the case with a woman named Charmaine. Her spirit of forgiveness and eagerness to take risks and grow, lives on.
I shall never forget her and the grace with which she overcame so many difficult obstacles, and lived a truly fulfilling life. Neither will the many people whose lives were changed by her example.

A Couple of Miracles: One Couple, More Than a Few Miracles
by Barry and Joyce Vissell.
We write our story, not only to entertain you, our readers, and certainly you will be entertained, but more so to inspire you. One thing we have learned after seventy-five years in these bodies, living on this earth, is that all of us have lives filled with miracles.
We sincerely hope you will look at your own lives with new eyes, and discover the miraculous in so many of your own stories. Like Einstein said, “There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.”

Recap:
Being willing to take risks is essential for personal growth. Most fears are based on imagined futures rather than present realities. By trusting the process and stepping outside our comfort zones, we open the door to transformation. Charmaine’s story serves as an inspiration, showing how embracing risks leads to strength, resilience, and a more fulfilling life. True growth happens when we let go of fear and embrace the unknown with courage.
