Seeking inspiration in life

Seeking inspiration in my daily life.

Life is wonderful and full of inspiration everyday as long as you are open and look for it.  For me I see inspiration in the laugh of a child, in the stars in the sky and in the breezes of the wind.  I also for me I can become inspired in my meditations, and prayers, when one is deeply connected to the divine inspiration can flow.

Every time I write, I try and meditate beforehand on what it is I should write or write about. Some times this works sometimes I need to go for a walk outside and just listen to nature.  Walk alongside the water and have my face in the wind and just listen.  Often I am inspired and know what it is that I need to write then.

I would like to think not only does my inspiration help me find my voice but also guide me in the style that I write.  I know that I am a wordy lady, and often it drives my husband nuts.  I am not a formal writer either.  But I write the words that feel like they should be there and in that order.  Often I try to have emotion in my words too.

Sometimes I do feel blocked when I am writing sometimes nature and life isn’t the right inspiration that is needed.  Like this week’s article assignment. Sometimes my voice doesn’t fit what it is I have to write about or I haven’t learned yet how to make it fit.

Over all I am still learning my writing style and finding what inspires me, I struggle and I grow like a seedling growing into a flower.  Right now I feel like I am still trying to bust through the soil.
