This Week’s Spark ✨ Moments That Matter
This week, I’m sharing the sparks of creativity that have fueled my soul—small reminders that beauty is everywhere, if you pause long enough to see it.
This week, I’ve found inspiration in the quiet spaces—the fleeting moments we often overlook. Whether it's a piece of music, a line of poetry, or an artist's work that caught my eye, these are the things that reminded me to slow down and appreciate the beauty that exists in the stillness. I hope these small sparks bring something meaningful to your own journey. Here’s what’s been keeping my creativity alive lately:
Quote of the Week:
“Story is metaphor for life and life is lived in time.” ― Robert McKee
This quote reminds me of the power of storytelling, how it captures the heartbeat of existence itself. Stories hold the weight of our memories, our dreams, our fleeting moments—carving meaning out of the passing time. Through words, we live a little longer.
Currently Listening:
“I WANT YOU” by Carter Vail
This is one of those tracks that feels like a late-night drive with the windows down—full of longing and that quiet, unshakable hope. A song that stirs something deep inside, reminding you of the things you want most in this life.
Don't forget to follow the Atticus Official Playlist on Spotify if you want to listen to my favorites along with me each week.
Inspired By:
E.E. Cummings’ "i carry your heart" is pure magic—words that feel like they’re wrapped in the quiet warmth of love itself. The way he speaks to the deepest connection between two souls, a love so intertwined that it becomes the very essence of everything. It's a reminder that love is the force that holds us, the stars, and the entire universe together. There’s something about this poem that stays with you long after you’ve read it, like a heartbeat echoing in your own chest.
