For The Love of Inspiration

The summer heat has hit me with nostalgia and the still air has my mind glazed with thought. And of course, when I start pondering, my mind tends to run with it. I tend to think of my goals in life, my vision for the future, and if I am truly reaching what I want out of life. My path has been changed many times and at this point, my vision tends to get a bit blurry and my checkpoints are just words on paper, hopefully waiting for me cross them out.

I think I’m…

nervous for the future, uncertain about our world, upset about the constant climate change battle, kinda annoyed with unfriendly neighbours, burnt by the never ending finance struggles, tired of lowering expectations, and struggling with inspiration.

I wrote a poetry book a few years back. I cannot begin to explain to you how fulfilling it was to create, edit, and plan out the manuscript. My book was not only a creative outlet, but also it was the first time I felt like I could be a professional writer someday, an author of my own series of successful novels. I know that the dream may not be in my favour, but the desire is worth fighting for.

And that is what I have been missing for the last while: desire. I left it in between the pages of my last book and none within me. When you don’t have both your mind AND heart in something, then it just becomes an unbearable task you must deal with.

I’m ready to change this. I’m ready to start attending to my heart’s desires once more for I feel my last book will forgive me for wanting to move forward. What will I publish next? I don’t really know, I just know that it’s time to put myself first again and to start over. Until then, I’ll continue writing more blogs and sharing content that I hope you enjoy reading.

I hope you also take the time to do what you love and remember it’s okay if you get lost along the way. Your heart will help you find a way back. I know that sounds super cheesy, but it’s true.

Your everyday girl,

Sara
