Twenty Dollars
Inspiration Peak

A well known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $20 bill. In the room of 200, he asked. "Who would like this $20 bill?"

Hands started going up. He said, "I am going to give this $ 20 to one of you - but first, let me do this."

He proceeded to crumple the 20 dollar note up. He then asked. "Who still wants it?" Still the hands were up in the air.

"Well," he replied, "what if I do this?" He dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. "Now, who still wants it?"

Still the hands went into the air.

"My friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth $20.

Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are worthless; but no matter what happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value.

Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still priceless to those who love you. The worth of our lives comes, not in what we do or who we know, but by ...WHO WE ARE.

You are special - don't ever forget it.

Inspiration Peak has been around forever. But it wasn't until 1995 that we began work on the website. Since then, ' the Peak' (as it's affectionately referred to) has been discovered by thousands of travelers from every corner of the world.

We like to think of 'the Peak' as a gathering place for some of the greatest spirits who have ever lived. A place where you can sit on the grass and stare at the sea and hear the gentle voices of Mother Teresa or Mahatma Gandhi as they whisper in your ear...
