Cassandra and friend Rosita
This blog is for anyone who, like me, is addicted to inspiration – for those who remember that to live is a verb; who endeavour to give more of themselves and get more from their lives – to live with passion, to take action, to love completely, and seek peace (both inner and outer); for those who aspire and inspire and seek to be inspired.
My favourite kind of inspiration is the people kind. I have been lucky enough to meet a hundred inspiring people in my lifetime (probably more). Their courage, generosity, creativity, and passion moves me. It encourages me to be my best self; makes me proud to be a fellow human. I try to learn from the everyday heroes I meet - how did they take their first step on the path towards living their passion? What inspired them? What have they learned? And how can I follow in their footsteps?
The world is full of inspiring people. This blog is my personal excuse to talk to as many of them as possible, to emulate them, to learn how to be the change I want to see in the world. I hope it may also be helpful for other inspiration addicts.
Inspiration is everywhere. Let’s celebrate the great.

Aww, Karina, you made me blush. These are very kind words indeed. Thank you.
Hey Cassandra – just found the link on famous authors who were rejected that you recommended I check out from Karina’s blog. Thank you for sharing.

Inspiration addicts:) I like it…
Hi Cassandra, thank you for this website – I have stumbled upon it via the Austrian Mutmacherei.net – they have a map of great projects on their website, and your website is one of them. I agree: people is my favorite inspiration as well. And I find them quite a bit out there in the world.
In my writing, I mostly focus on travel and people who travel with a mission, something which is a combination of your “adventurous life” and the “eco-life”category. There are people walking only by foot around the world, people raising money for charity, people singing and connecting people through music, others travel for vegan food, .. it´s amazing. Most of my writing is in german, but there is also a section in English. My website still is work in progress, but yours is truly inspiring
Thank you!
Uplifting inspiring website.
Thank you Elizabeth, your own blog seems like a beautiful and personal journey and it’s inspiring of you to share!
Thank you for stopping by and sharing your encouraging words about the 365 cups of kindness…please feel free to share anything you find on my site. If you have questions, just holler! Best wishes.
