But like you said, sparks fly when we find things that inspire us. For me, watching a really good play, seeing a beautiful painting in a museum, or browsing in a bookstore is inspiring. The latter is especially full of sparks because I like being surrounded by so many books and the knowledge that there are all these creative, interesting people out there, writing.
