It's the little things


     A friend and I were talking last night and he mentioned my blog and asked where I get the material and how I decide what to write. Good Question. 
     
     What inspires us?
     
     What an interesting thought. As I pondered this I realized that more often then not I am inspired by the small and simple things in life. Good friends, good conversation, and happy moments. I definitely take these simple pleasures for granted. These brief beautiful spurts of time come and go in an instant. Sometimes we fail to recognize them. In my own ignorance to these happenings I cannot help but wonder what inspiration I may be missing out on. Furthermore, by not paying attention am I forgetting joyful moments as well? I believe that happiness is a gift. Every smile, every laugh, every moment of lightheartedness....these small and simple things are precious! 
My new goal: Pay close attention to these quiet gifts, and maybe then the creativity and joy will flow more freely.
