Someone asked  me the other day… What inspires you to write? I thought on it for a moment and could not definitively identify a main source for my inspiration. I felt I do not necessarily become inspired but instead excavate an interesting thought and build on it in written word. So I suppose I felt I was inwardly inspired more so than outwardly. I do spend a lot of time alone. My introspective nature always finds me searching for answers and the questions that are asked can be such fun to explore! Ya da ya da ya da and all that good stuff… turns out this was not exactly true. How could I forget? Maybe I needed a tune to remind me how much emotion music can evoke?

 

Music inspires me!

 

Not just my writing but my life! Music is so powerful. I had to be reminded this morning  during the morning routine, I heard a melody and it got my thoughts churning. I felt like something was on the tip of my tongue, but instead of my tongue I would mean my mind. Like a lost memory trying to materialize and come back!  That little tune evoked such emotion in me! I actually stopped what I was doing (Brushing my hurrr) and listened and felt something I can not really describe or articulate, nostalgia? Or something like it? In any case it moved me.

 

So yes I completely forgot about it at the time, but indeed music does inspire me intensely. All types of music in all kinds of different ways.

 

Peace.
