Maya Inspiration

Inspiration is found in the gift that is given from the soul. It iminates and resonates as drums beating and nature singing bring forth swift sound movement and rhythm to the inner being. It is often initiated silently so attention is not focused on the giver of this gift but its recipient. Inspiration is found in the laughter at one's self over the life led and the things left behind are now quietly amusing. Some small memory now brings a smile as the thought transpires into imagery and if note worthy, is transformed to prose put down by pen to paper and if found - even much later - shall bring as much joy to the reader as it first did to the writer. Inspiration, like beauty, is too found in the eye in the beholder but not so much for the joy rested upon the sight of the onlooker but the inward delight brought on partaking in the wonderful exchange of words held captive in intense conversation. Inspiration is found in far off lands where watching growth and development seem surreal and suspended and yet touches the heart so indepthly that its as if you too were right there, joined at the hip, at the hand or even more importantly at the heart. Inspiration is found in breathtakenly simple parts of humanity that are often overlooked - until it is too late, often underrated until the world embraces it or denied until someone takes notice and simply loves it. Inspiration is found in the faces you seek to love, love to see and leave you forever seeking more. Both now and tomorrow, inspiration once again has embraced my heart through the soft spoken of one such inspirational, phenomenal life. Inspiration - I give you Maya Angelou.
