The thing with inspiration

The thing with inspiration is that you will never know when it will hit. It could be while sitting on the train staring at the plane flying by your window when all of a sudden there's a burst in your mind with no pen in sight or when your sitting during a lecture and all of a sudden the corner of your notes are etched with words and phrases that seem to flow together in a way that even you couldn't have expected it to. All the times where there is nothing near to record the sudden bursts, you are left to wander reciting the same words over and over 'til you can find a scrap and some ink to scribble down your next masterpiece. It always hits when you need it not. When your mind is adrift and all of a sudden hit by a wave pounding at your brain. When there are deadlines and expectations, the inspiration never hits. But as you sit and stare at the wonders around you, the blankets of knowledge you have accumulated over time combine, and you create a beauty. An addition to a creation to who you are and it's magic.
