Inspired Life


Thank you for checking out The Inspired Life blog page. I am very excited about the possibilities of what is to come for us - yes you and me. I thought I should first introduce myself. My name is Michele Scism and I live in Lake Charles, LA. I am married and have 2 teenage children living at home. My husbands 2 children live on their own and are each raising one of our 2 beautiful grandchildren. I have successfully reached my 39th birthday several times. My husband and my doctors seem to like to remind me of that although I try not to let it bother me. I am a genuinely happy person, I smile a lot and try to maintain a positive attitude at all times. I did say try because believe it or not their are times when even I am not completely positive. I love God, my family and friends, music, business, social networking and anything inspirational. OK and I love to eat - I do live in Southwest Louisiana and that is what we specialize in.


I am starting this blog as part of my new journey. We have recently sold our family businesses and I have been given a blessing. The ability to search for what I am supposed to do with the rest of my life. I know it is a blessing because what God helps to create can only prosper. In Proverbs 31 is a description of the Virtuous Woman. There are 22 points made about this amazing woman - she is rare, trustworthy, constant in her love, industrious, thrifty, self starting, enterprising, willing to do hard work, willing to work long hours, willing to do monotonous work, compassionate, prepared for the future, a good seamstress, married to a leader, an entrepreneur, not swayed by circumstances, wise and kind, duty-conscious, blessed by her family, not satisfied with mediocre, a woman of God and praiseworthy. (Proverbs 31:10-31KJV) Do I confess to be this woman, absolutely not. However, I strive to be this woman and you can too. I have given a lot of thought lately to what my talents are and I have come up with a list.



  • Professional Business Woman!

  • Amazingly Organized!

  • Great Speaker!

  • Extremely Motivated and Self Driven!

  • Caring and Loving Mother, Wife, Daughter and Grand Daughter!

When I come up with more for my list I will let you know. In the meantime I want to say that while working on my list a lot of negative doubtful thoughts came to my mind about what I am. However, I know that those are false and I will not focus on them because What You Focus Your Energy On Will Grow - positive or negative! What I would like for you to do is work on your list. It is important to know what you think of yourself.


Thanks for taking the time to check out my blog. I am looking forward to meeting you so please leave a comment or drop me a line. I think in my next blog I will tell you a little about who I used to be.
