It’s raining outside. A nice, solid downpour washing away all the dirt and dust of the last three months of almost no rain. We did have snow one day. Like…for an hour…and it didn’t stick. And then it went back to being 70 during the day.
And I love the rain. It refreshes everything, it puts me in a contemplative frame of mind, it makes the world more vibrant. I’m not even complaining it that it’s November 1 and it should be 20 degrees cooler, and snowing here. Definitely not complaining about that.
It puts me in the perfect frame of mind to be creative. Which would be fantastic…if I didn’t have so many non-creative things to do today. Don’t misunderstand, some software programmers are artistic geniuses. They make their code sing and dance.
I am not one of those. My code is just words tweaked to make things go faster. It’s a technical manual versus a compelling novel.
But maybe the rain will inspire me to make pretty computer code today. Maybe I’ll paint pictures with my IF THEN loops, and my cursors.
SELECT Pretty, Flowing, Magical
FROM BrainPower.dbo.Creativity C
INNER JOIN Environment.dbo.Weather W
ON W.MotivationID = W.PreciptationID
WHERE W.PreciptationName = ‘Rain’
Probably not, but maybe.
What inspires you?
