Every creative mind draws its inspiration from somewhere. Something drives them to create what it is they love to do. Whether it be in the things we see, the people we meet, the places we go, or the experiences we have, there is a root, a driving motivation to the passion in all of us.
For me, it has been increasingly evident for quite some time. You could ask me to explain it but I just haven't been able to put my finger on the reason yet. So what is it? Glad you asked, otherwise the remainder of this blog would be rather pointless. I find passion and inspiration in the music of The Classic Crime. Simply pressing play and letting one track filter through the speakers on my stereo or weave its way through the cords of my earbuds and ideas begin to flow. Something grows out of nothing. Walls fall in my mind. I maintain focus. Words come. My talent may be rudimentary at best, but my writing serves a purpose greater than for you to read. That topic has been addressed a few months ago though.
Let's get back on point. For me the music just paints the picture of the story I want to tell. Each one of us has our own personal story to tell from the journey that is life. Yet for me, it's much more than that. It's not about just telling my story. Or perhaps, even telling my story at all. It's about all those other stories that are there. They are there, deep within me, just waiting to be released. Waiting to be assembled in the right format. Waiting for me to tell them. Waiting to reach the right audience. And with the proper cue, all this will be achieved in time. It comes back to the simple key that unlocks all those hidden pathways and sets those ideas free.
As time marches forward, I hope you'll continue to journey with me as the stories within me reveal themselves and take the form of written word.
