It\u2019s&nbsp; a easy to read, feel good book about random, unspoken, unnoticed or may be noticed yet ignored things&nbsp; in life.<\/p>\n<p>So now that I\u2019m officially an author, I did have a few people ask me, since when am I writing, what inspires me to write? To answer that, sounds easy yet difficult to answer question, I&#8217;d&nbsp; say everything and everyone inspires me to write.<\/p>\n<p>It could&nbsp; be the girl selling balloons with a cute smile&nbsp; at the traffic signal and it could&nbsp; also be the annoying&nbsp; 30mins waiting&nbsp; at just one spot in the traffic signal.<\/p>\n<p>It could again be the after thoughts of an emotional breakdown or watching someone grow, succeed, fall down, get up and start moving again.<\/p>\n<p>It could be the selfless forever supportive, love of your mom, who introduced you to the language you can best express your&nbsp; feelings in or it could be about the selfless, sometimes taken for granted efforts of the mom in law towards her children and everyone that she meets!<\/p>\n<p>It could also be the endless moments of love, laughter, arguments and care between the loves of your life.<\/p>\n<p>It sure can be about your love for a pet who you wished, you had a little more time with,&nbsp; or about&nbsp; friends who are far but not less than family!!<\/p>\n<p>They can be stories of siblings, esp. about times&nbsp; when you wished you had an option to pick who you wanted as your sibling!!<\/p>\n<p>Whoa, the list is endless and it will always be! We write with a pen, in my case we write on the phone or the laptop using a word document. The stories&nbsp; will always be about life in general.<\/p>\n<p>Some are meant to transform you, some will make you ponder! Some you will relate to, some you will not!!<\/p>\n<p>Your life is always filled with moments that can be written about, moments that stir up your soul!<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll always be busy, we will always have plenty of reasons to be!! You just have to stop for a moment and prioritize your list.<\/p>\n<p>Keep moving<\/p>\n<p>Keep reading<\/p>\n<p>Keep writing<\/p>\n<p>#musingsoftheheartandsoul<\/p>\n<p>#musingsforever<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/musingsoftheheartandsoul.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/12\/img-20171212-wa0118-1849907193.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/musingsoftheheartandsoul.files.wordpress.com\/2017\/12\/img-20171212-wa0118-1849907193.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-327 alignnone size-full\" width=\"778\" height=\"1280\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Birthdays always are the best days of the year and when you have something that you will forever be thankful for its like extra topping on the cake.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2346,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"aside","meta":{"spay_email":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[6,45],"yst_prominent_words":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","blog_post_layout_featured_media_urls":{"thumbnail":"","full":""},"categories_names":{"3":{"name":"Musings","link":"https:\/\/decodinglives.com\/index.php\/category\/musing\/"}},"tags_names":{"6":{"name":"musings","link":"https:\/\/decodinglives.com\/index.php\/tag\/musings\/"},"45":{"name":"Personal","link":"https:\/\/decodinglives.com\/index.php\/tag\/personal\/"}},"comments_number":"6","wpmagazine_modules_lite_featured_media_urls":{"thumbnail":"","cvmm-medium":"","cvmm-medium-plus":"","cvmm-portrait":"","cvmm-medium-square":"","cvmm-large":"","cvmm-small":"","full":""},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/decodinglives.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/328"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/decodinglives.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/decodinglives.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/decodinglives.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/decodinglives.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=328"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/decodinglives.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/328\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/decodinglives.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2346"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/decodinglives.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=328"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/decodinglives.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=328"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/decodinglives.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=328"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/decodinglives.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=328"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
