Putting Fingers to Keyboard.....#WQ : Theme: Literature/Media that Inspires

It's another week of  Wednesday Quotes, hosted by Marsha from Always Write. If you're interested in joining, you can find more about #WQ here.

This weeks theme is literature and media that inspire. Now, those are two things I love...I love literature in many forms, and I do love media...whether it's in the form of art or photography, or movies, "social media". I believe we can find inspiration in so many places if we look for it. 

First off, what kind of media inspires me?

*Books-all types, from fiction to non-fiction and everything else. I can usually find something tucked away in them. Sometimes they just encourage me, or give me something to think about. Sometimes they send down a rabbit hole of "googling" information. 

*Podcasts and Ted Talks: If you find the right ones, they will leave you inspired.

*Movies and TV....I'm often inspired by these...maybe it's that I'm inspired to try a new recipe. Or maybe a movie just inspires me to look at people differently or to live a better life. 

*Art work...whether painted, drawn, sculptures, murals. I am easily inspired, especially if there is information to go along with what I'm looking at. 

*Bloggers....Blogging is a form of "media", and I am inspired by so many bloggers. 

*Facebook and Instagram....yes, I am inspired by these outlets. I learn so many new things, keep up with long distance friends and family. 

I'm sure there may be other forms I'm missing, but these are the top ones for me. 

I spotted the art below at the Portland International Airport last October....It was fascinating. I will say I've developed more of an awareness of art, especially public art through the blogs I follow. 

From artwork to sculptures to murals..I always have my eye open for it all!!!

I don't have bookshelves in my house...I mean, I would love them, but I just don't have them. I do have this secretary des, that was my moms and the little book shelves behind the doors are perfect for me. 

I love being inspired by other peoples photos, and I'm inspired to always consider what I'm taking a photo of...what prompted me to take the photo, what do I look for, what am I wanting to communicate? Sometimes it's simply for my own pleasure, something I want to just have to look back on. Sometimes it's for a prompt for a blog post or something else. I love photography. 

Ending with this.....things to do haha....the day got away from me. 

With Joy Unquenchable,
