This Inspires Me

After finding myself out of work I needed something that would keep my brain working on an intellectual level higher than housework provided. I joined Photo a Day in August 2013 and it helped. However my world was becoming very small as I travelled very little, even to town. I found by the end of August 2014 that I was struggling to find photos that weren’t just repeats. So I made a decision to take a break.

Four days later my life was turned upside down when my parents were involved in a car accident which took the life of my mother and kept my father in hospital for three months. At the beginning of November I decided to try again but it wasn’t long when I was dealing with the same problem as before. Depression was also becoming an increasing issue and I prayed that God would help me find a way to deal with it on my own, my mother was no longer available to talk to.

One morning, it came to me that I might try to write a story using the prompt as the title and take a photo related to the story. It seemed almost crazy but anything was worth a try. After all I could only fail to deliver and there would be no shame in that, just only in not trying.

I surprised myself! There are some times when I would sit at the computer and have no idea what I was going to write and bit by bit the words have come. There have also been times when I have written more than one story. Other photos have also inspired stories.

Isaiah 55:8 says “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.” HOW TRUE!
