Yesterday was a great day:  I went to watch a show at a library, had some good Chinese food and also had a gig for an adorable 3 year old's birthday party.

The chain of events from yesterday has lead me to thinking, "Where does inspiration come from?"  As a balloon artist - and all other artist as well, inspiration can come from anywhere.  Watching the kids show at the library was quite entertaining.  Not just the show in general, but how he performed his show, the intricacies of his show, his comedic timing.  It really makes me appreciate the thought, hard work and time that is needed to create something.  I remember hearing from one of my professors in college, "you know you've done your job well when people think 'that's easy, I can do that.'"

The kids party.  That was a blast!!!  It never fails to amaze me the amount of joy and the big smile that comes from a kid when you had them a balloon.  Not only the children, but also adults!  Balloons truly bring joy to people, and that's what the goals is about.  It's funny how quickly adults can become children when it comes to balloons.

Now, how does good Chinese food fit into all this?   Good question.  I don't know, that was just what was happening in my day...  Maybe something will inspire me from it.
