inspiration?

do you know what the best thing about writing is?
now..by writing i mean writing..get it???
ok..that really wasn't very clear..i mean writing as in writing a book,writing a diary,writing a blog... . get it now??figured..

so the best thing about writing is that as soon as you start doing mentioned activity.. everything ..everything..seems worth writing about.. one has an opinion on everything..a few random thoughts ,a knowledge so vast and so important that it just has to be shared with the rest of humanity.. otherwise.. george bush will start wearing a tutu(and believe me..nobody wants to see that!!)

..now..just yesterday..i was strolling down a side street on my way to the co-op to buy milk..it was a sunny afternoon..birds chirping,gentle breeze,flowers swaying and the rest of the world doing whatever they are supposed to do on a sunny afternoon...when suddenly, with no warning whatsoever..inspiration struck me bang on the head and made me gasp, stagger and look around wildly...
inspiration chuckled gleefully..impressed with its ability to reduce a mortal to the level of a spider with 3 legs..blubbering and blundering

it mocked me..hello??what do you think you are doing??have you not noticed the dead gnat lying on the side-walk?don't you think that it is material worth its weight in gold for you to write a nobel-prize-winning-people-gasping-with-awe article?
look!..that car just honked..oh my god!!take out your notebook and start writing you nincompoop..somebody has to keep the rest of the ignorant human race informed..
gasp!!the clouds have blotted out the sun!the old lady is picking her nose!the leaves are green!people can walk?!!when did that happen??

the possibilties which inspiration pointed out to me made me choke with my own stupidity..i mean one has to be really thick to not notice the fact that the sun is visible only during the day and the stars at night is worth writing a 1500 page article on..
i am suddenly teary-eyed thinking about the opportunities i have missed..suddenly everything that has ever gone wrong in my life is down to this..
no wonder i got only 4 out of 10 in that chem test in standard 8..if only i had noticed that people 'drink' tea and 'sip' soft drinks..
i am filled with resolution..i wipe my tears,square my shoulders and march home purposefully..to write an article on the dead gnat...its death shall not go in vain..not if I have a say in it!!
