I am feeling positively inspired and excited. Having decided to apply to do a postgraduate degree in history (a subject I’ve always loved) ; I decided to reacquaint myself with the county archives, with a view to researching writing a couple of papers on historical subjects that interest me. I met one of the people who works there, I’m not going to embarrass him by naming him, and all I can say is that it’s so great to meet someone who is so obviously inspired and passionate about their subject – I’m inspired, I love history and I want to be that passionate and enthralled by the subject as well. It’s making me look at my subject in a whole new light, I’m positive, I can do this. Away I go … I’m so excited.
Something else that’s inspired me: I found this in one of my books today -
On some island I long to be
A rocky promontory, Looking on
The coiling surface of the sea.
To see the waves, crest on crest
Of the great shining ocean, composing
A hymn to the creator, without rest.
Collumcille
Thanks for reading.
