“Bread and Coffee”
My thanks for this prompt goes to the Woman on the Wrong Side of the Mirror, who got it from The Night Writer, who got it from Inspiration Flirtation.
My inspiration comes from….
- Holding a camera
- Opening a journal to a blank page
- Watching a cursor blink
- Encountering the Ordinary over bread and coffee
- Experiencing the Divine through writ and ritual
- Picking and tripping over stones in the shade of oaks and sycamores
- Scanning the sea for wild whales and wayward pelicans
- Watching an egret hunt for her supper
- Cooking
- Roaming museums and libraries and connecting with the spirit that draws to Communion all creative souls
- Ascending mountains to see the dance of heaven
- Gazing at moon jellies and sea dragons in the dark
- The History Channel
- Rendezvous with the dark man in my nightly sojourns.
- Reading a trashy novel
- Solving a mystery
- Bellydancing
- Hanging with kindred angels
- Watching incense curl to the heavens and being thankful for it all.

Wonderful list, Lori. I’m with you on so many of them, especially when it comes to the camera and scrapbook. Some of the others, too. Forget belly dancing though…that’s not for me, never was, but at my age? Sheesh! especially at my age.
