Hey my name is Tez :)
I am currently backpacking around New Zealand with my partner at the moment, about eight months into a two year trip... So being a backpacker means I've usually got little cash and heaps of free time!
Anyway I love to write, poetry, short stories, quotes anything that gets stuck in my head. Ive been on this site on and off for a couple of years and in all that time I have never won a trophy! Oh well Persistence is the key I suppose...
People that inspire me... Well Richard Bach is my favorite. If you never have read Illusions, you definitely should. It will open your eyes and change the way you look at the world.
"A cloud does not know why it moves in such a direction and at such a speed. It feels an impulsion... this is the place to go now.
But the sky knows the reasons and the patterns behind all clouds and you will too, when you reach yourself high enough to beyond horizons." Richard Bach
I think that the people you see (or don't see) everyday are the real inspiration in life. That the the people, scenery and generally life itself can be inspiring. That is if you can leave your cynic cloak at home!
"The day I stop looking at life without wonder and awe. Please remind me to go shoot myself" Unknown
A couple more of other artists' work that I love and then I will let my poetry speak for itself!
"Isn't it strange?
That princes and kings
and clowns that caper in sawdust rings
And common folk like you and me,
are builders of eternity?
To each is given
A bag of tools
a shapeless mass
and a book of rules.
And each ere which
a life has flown.
As a stumbling block
Or a stepping stone." Unknown
"I feel wonderful because I see,
The love light in your eyes.
And the wonder of it all,
Is that you just don't realize
How much I love you." Eric Clapton.
