I’ve been writing a very small piece of text now for what feels like a stupid length of time. Normally if I decide to write something I just get on and do it, this time I’ve been distracted at every turn. This time however I have found the distractions an inspiration rather than an annoyance, the dry and somewhat musty text I was writing has become much more personal, it’s almost a biography of inspiration (which I imagine is a phrase that makes little sense to anyone).<\/p>\n
I’m not sure if the text will end up being any more readable thanks to this diversion, but it’s been an interesting process so far; to the point where I can almost understand why some of the things that trigger my imagination do so. <\/p>\n
It’ll be fair to say that I think about what inspires us a great deal, I don’t dwell on the subject for hours, but it’s a subject that makes me stop and think every now and then. The ability to focus that inspiration is a something I’ve yet to master.<\/p>\n
Some days I’m glad I get distracted, because these distractions can lead to all sorts of places \ud83d\ude09 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
