Thank you to Michele Stanners for the above writing warmup this morning in the Thursday morning WRITE NOW Akimbo group.
Here was my answer:
Alors, je veux apprendre le français. C’est parce que j’aime beaucoup la langue française, et c’est bon pour ma tête. [So, I want to learn French. It’s because I like the French language a lot and it’s good for my head.]
Mais plus que ça, [But more than that] I want to keep growing. Trying. Pushing the envelope. And setting an example for myself and my peeps. I choose to engage my “tip” motivation and the emotion that goes with it EVERY SINGLE DAY.
And I ask WHAT is it for? Yes. But I also ask WHY!???
My motivation is my push to be a better person. Full stop.
Here’s what I do to feed my body and my muses. (The Muses are hungry ones.)
Yoga
Meditation
Play the piano
Dance flamenco
Write!!
And try to be the best
Wife
Mother-in-law
Nonna (grandmother)
Sister
Sister-in-law
Friend
Then, I try to help all of those people be the best versions of themselves, too.
Isn’t that what we’re here to do?
