Be true to yourself..

I've been feeling ridiculously inspired these past few days. It got me to thinking where this inspiration could have possibly come from. I think I can narrow it down to two things: music (not too surprising) and someone very dear to me. I've also been on a Green Day kick (where did that come from!?) and so I've been listening to a lot of songs and actually taking the time to enjoy the lyrics. I'm normally just an overall fan of the way music sounds, maybe picking up a few words from the chorus, but that's it.

These lyrics hit me particularly hard:

"It says home is where the heart is
But what a shame
Cause everyone's heart
Doesn't beat the same
It's beating out of time."

I've been really enjoying Warning, even though according to Green Day experts it's not their best album. All morning, I had a song stuck in my head and I could only remember the melody of one part. I finally figured out what it was:



Anyway, I'm going to see where this inspiration takes me. I'm limited to construction paper and colored pencils, but I'll try to figure something out.
