What sparks my creativity?

I have been writing since the age of eleven, I remember sitting at my Mother's kitchen table with a big stack of fresh notebook paper. We didn't have a computer back then lol (I don't think they were even cool yet.) Back then I wrote about girls who had crazy lives, but it was all so innocent. As I got older(Nkotb wasn't cool anymore by the way, but to me and my dear friend they still were in our hearts haha) I was so into NKOTB they seemed to represent my male characters in anything I wrote. Its funny now to sit back and think about my writing and what inspired it. Nowadays, I have seen a lot. I have met a lot of people, friends, family etc. I think what sparks my creativity when I write my books now is remembering the moments that sparked my own emotions, when I can honestly say 'I had goosebumps". When I watch a movie and there is a powerful dialouge I am blown away, and my brain starts going off! My most memorable movie that I watched where I wanted to express that emotion the same way through my writing was Good Will Hunting the scene where she tries to get through to him and they scream and cry, that emotion all in a measly four minutes its thrilling. My creativity comes from human emotions, the raw and real emotions that we all have, some are to afraid to let them out. But the best way to show what real emotion is, is through my writing. Reading a good book , feeling like a fly on the wall as real emotion is slung all over the place like trash in a tornado its pure beauty!

Writing is my....

Writing is my escape, my comfort, writing is a big sigh of relief when I feel on edge. Writing is my creation, my outlet to escape stress. Writing is my feelings bleeding out on paper for the world to see.
Writing helps me cope, helps me laugh and to heal. There are so many things that writing is to me, what is writing to everyone else?

My favorite song right now...

My favorite song right now would be "The way" by Fastball. There is just something about that song that I just love. Its a feelgood for sure, the best part about it is the reason it was wrote.
I read somewhere that they wrote this song because an elderly couple went missing and nobody knew where they were, and one of the guys sat and pondered why two people would just take off and never return again, so now when you listen to the lyrics it really makes a difference. Where were they goign without ever knowing the way? lol Sadly the people fell off a cliff and that was why they were never found. But this is why I love music as much as writing, its a freedom of expression, a way to go places and say things you normally wouldnt say. There is nothing better. And with that I bid the world a goodnight, I am off to sleep if my brain will shut off, hoping for many good things to come for my books, and the new day ahead! Peace.

Do you really have to care?

I think everyone has to care about something in life. What would be the point of living if we didn't? I think its the extent in which we care that changes the way we are in like, if we care to much then that could ruin our lives, or maybe improve them.
Sitting here I ask myself what do I care about? Thats pretty simple, being a good person, happiness, my loved ones, writing and music.
What does everyone else care about? Are they the same as mine, has caring about something ever turned into the total opposite of what was expected?
