Inspire Me ...

'Same, same ...' is one of the phrases that has become a house favourite here. You here it a lot among the Asian workers - it means 'same' but more so. Second favourite is 'Mamsir' - wherever you go you are 'Sir' or 'Mam' but sometimes you are 'Mamsir', which is always a special delight.
It's one of the things I am getting used to - that every day is same same. There's a groundhog day quality to life that I'm finding it - how can I put this - difficult, to adjust to.
I miss feeling inspired, I guess, by home, the countryside, by ancient architecture, by the things that make me tick. Everyone is different - look at Thesiger, Stark, some people love the desert. Me, my well is feeling a little empty to borrow Julia Cameron's phrase - but I'm keeping my eyes open.
So - where do your ideas come from? What inspires you? Over at Peeking Between the Pages we are kicking off our Canadian blog tour discussing just that, Inspiration. And as if you needed any more incentive to head over there, Darlene is giving away a copy of The Beauty Chorus. Enjoy x
