Be Inspired

“Seek the lofty by reading, hearing and seeing great work at some moment every day.” – Thornton Wilder

I’m sure some of you out there wonder why I put a quote at the beginning of my blog. I actually only do it on blog posts. I rarely put quotes on Instagram, but I always start my WordPress posts with a quote. I have a couple of websites that I go to in order to find a good quote to use. Sometimes the quote is just there. I like the quote, but it doesn’t relate to what I am writing about. Sometimes the quote just happens to line up with what I am writing about, and other times it ends up being the subject. I like the quotes I post because it’s one of the ways I get inspired daily. This is my moment of seeking something lofty.

One of the places I go to get inspired is the rail trail that goes to Uptown Charlotte. This is one of my favorite places to ride my bike on. While the path might be the same, it is rarely the same ride each time. Sometimes there are marathons, festivals, and different events that happen along the trail. Some of my best thoughts have come from riding my bike on this trail.
