Rusty glasses? "Rusty Cage" - Soundgarden?

Through the eyes of a skateboarder, you learn to see the world differently, every normal stairset, drop, ledge or curb you see in the world becomes an idea and a trick you might perform on it. The most obscure features that you see in your normal life will take on a new form as you see something so normal very differently.

As a writer, I've learned to see everything as a potential writing prompt. Of course you always want to be productive or what you see as productive, but all downtime can lead to helpful thoughts as well. Just like a hard time can fuel a good lyric, they offer thoughts for writing. Or any kind of time can really. @Inspiredtowrite recently shared a post talking about how there is no unproductive moments as a writer, they all fuel the creative process somehow. While learning to live with a chronic illness, you come to learn how productive rest is too. You can't always pour from an empty cup and you learn that it's needed just as much, the same goes for writing.

As a musician, or even just a music listener, you hear the beat to everything. You might tend to find a pattern in the most random things. Of course that washer or dryer would be a great drummer to an AC/DC song. The sound of that truck beeping far in the distance easily reminds you of a tune you heard on the Spanish radio station in Grand Theft Auto or something. I'm sure you see what I'm getting at. (maybe not)
