Inkspire: Poetic Pursuit #3

Prompt: Describe a time when something didn’t happen according to my plan, but it led to something even better.

Inkspire: Poetic Pursuit invites introspection through poetry or stories. A fresh prompt is published every Wednesday, offering the creative freedom to craft a poem or story in your preferred style inspired by the prompt.

Reflective writing can have a transformative effect on our lives. As well as the prompt I will share my own writing practice with you and hopefully it will help you in your creative pursuit.

• Step One: I sit in a comfortable place with my notebook and pen, maybe some tea.
• Step Two: I read the prompt to myself.
• Step Three: I sit 5 to 10 minutes in meditation while having the prompt in mind.
• Step Four: I start writing, I write whatever comes to my mind through the prompt. Images, memories, dreams, people and places.
• Step Five: I edit my writing. Usually I do this later or the next day.

If you would like to use the prompt and perhaps try this practice, I would appreciate if you could include a pingback link to this post if you publish it on WordPress. Or if you publish it on social media, I would appreciate a mention of @thinklessfeelmoreblog

I wish you lots of creativity 💙
