What are you waiting for?
Do you ever feel like you are biding your time, waiting for something to happen? If you've seen The Incredibles, you may remember the sceen when Mr. Incredible comes home from work, frutstrated by the day to day grind of his boring life. He's depressed and unhappy. The neighbour kid is sitting at the end of the drive, having previously witnessed Mr. Incredible lift the car above his head.

"What are you waiting for?" says Mr. Incredible.

"I dunno," says the kid, "something incredible!"

"Yeah, me too kid," says Mr. Incredible as he turns to head inside.

That's what I feel like somedays... I feel like I'm waiting for something incredible to happen. There are opportunities all around me. Opportunities at work, in my writing, my homelife, my personal life... but I still feel as though I'm on hold. Waiting.

What do you do for inspiration? How do you tap into life and get juiced up on the excitement of it?

Gearing up for something incredible? Hmmm ... a Keith Urban video on CMT, a glass of wine or some really good chocolate usually inspire me to do something, especially writing ...
