I must admit...

For me...inspiration comes in the form of movies. Is this a positive thing? Movies are not real, they are a vision of someone's imagination. Even when movies are depicting real events...they are still only how someone remembers it. There is only one person, one real, living, breathing, not an imaginary character person that I find inspiring. In a world filled with such amazing wonders how can it be that only one person inspires me without even knowing it. You may think this person is some famous actor or singer or limelight liver but he/she isn't. This person is someone I actually know, someone I have shared dinners with, someone I have played games with, someone I have traveled with, someone I have loved. When I am lacking motivation to do anything...I think about this person and how he/she is constantly moving. Always doing something or rather completing something. A decision to do something is made and within a matter of time...completed. Who does that? I never finish anything.

My recent movie inspiration is Julie and Julia. I know I know...what I'm doing here is so cliche. I don't care though. I like the idea of deciding to do something and setting a deadline. Especially on here. I like the idea of being held accountable by someone other than myself. My inspiring person shall be impressed although I doubt he/she will ever know but that's not my reason for doing it anyway.

I've been wanting to write a book...for a VERY long time. The ideas and chapters have been floating around from computer to USB drive to paper and back. It's time I really did something about it.
