What Inspires You?

About a year ago, I decided to pursue my passion for writing.  Last summer, I began my memoir...or at least that was my intention...during the leadership program I am a part of.  Classes ended with the promise to keep the thoughts and pen flowing.

But fast forward six months later-I have not made significant progress with my story-besides a collection of poems I've created.  I often talk to a couple of friends about this block that I've had.  I'm not sure if it's a time issue because sometimes I have too much of it on my hands.

The realization hit, that in order for me to be productive, some 'thing' must happen in my life!  Well, that 'thing' sure has.  I am currently 5 months pregnant and lovin' it ;-)!!  My wonderful little joy inside of me has been the motivation I desperately needed to continue my writing journey.

Events-miraculous and devastating-inspire me to accomplish my goals...so my friends, what inspires you?
