"The trick is to just follow your small moments of curiosity. It doesn't take a massive effort. Just turn your head an inch. Pause for an instant. Respond to what has caught your attention. Look into it a bit. Is there something there for you? A piece of information? For me, a liftime devoted to creativity is noting but a scavenger hunt - where each successive clue is another tiny little bit of curiosity. Pick each one up, unfold it, see where it leads you next. Small steps. Keep doing that, and I promise you: The curiosity will eventually lead you to the passion." -Elizabeth Gilbert
Some people have blogs for hair and makeup tutorials, fashion inspirations, weight loss/fitness tips or some other mind blowing tips or tutorials. I'm far from creative in those regards; however, my love, my passion comes in the form of writing. My inspiration for my writing comes from the things I encounter in my life, whether that be a life experience or a quote that I come across that moves me.
I keep this little journal full of quotes that I have found that inspire me or resonate with my soul. It is rare that a day goes by that I don't write something down in it. I use it not only for my writing, but for comfort, advice or simply just to gain perspective or peace of mind.
It is said that actions speak louder than words, but sometimes the right words can make all of the difference.
