it comes from everywhere and anywhere. the beauty (usually) is not knowing when it’s going to hit. having been on the road for the past two weeks i’ve really noticed it. maybe it’s stepping outside any schedule you have, or simply being in a new place or a combination of the two.

This idea is out there all the time and particularly been on my mind lately. Apparently I’m not the only one as these recent ruminations elaborate.
