Sources of inspiration. When I am on the bus, I get really bored, so I begin to look around. And I find so many interesting faces. The other day I saw a guy with a wedding ring that was total bling bling. Its fun to wonder who they are and what kind of person they are. And no, I do not creep around staring people down. But I do sometimes listen to conversations that people have, or the way that they talk. Because I remember thinking that it is strange how there are so many people, and that I only know a hand full of them. I am always interested to listen to people, or ask about their life if I don't try to guess it. I also find it strange when no one is talking on the bus, because there are so many people.
But if I am not reading, studying, or texting then I am thinking. Another good source of information besides observing people are dreams. I know that there are people i my dreams who i don't think that I met. Which reminds me, last night I dreamed I was driving a bus, and I didn't know how to so I was driving like a crazy person. It was kind of like Grad Theft Auto. Any way, it is good to activly remember your dreams. I'm starting a dream note book, and I want to see if I can start controlling what happens in my dream. I think that it would be awesome to fly, so that is one of my goals.
So, where do you get inspiration while writing?
I always look at people also! They are so interesting. I might see a guy and think, "What's his story." We know so little about those around us. But it is fun to see those around us. Have you ever been people watching? We are so dofferent.
ReplyDeleteAs far as controlling what you dream about I think it is highly unlikely that a person can. Dreaming takes place in our subconscious which is uncontrollable. But I watch people too and wonder what they are thinking or where they are going.
ReplyDeleteI got a dream book which says that it is possible, you just got to believe in it. And I go people watching all the time, looking at how interesting people are.
