Inspiration

For awhile now I've been working on a book. I don't want to say novel because who knows how long it will end up. But it's a very important story that needs to be written. However, I find it difficult to express myself over lengths of pages for I get lost in my own thoughts and feel it doesn't come to fruition in a cohesive manner.
There are "methods" and "tricks" that have worked for many but it still proves to be unbelievable that what I have to say will be understood. Let alone, in a way that I am able to profess. At what point do you move on? At what time do you consider a break? Never.
It may never get written but at least I will never give up trying. Being an author ranks in my top few "hardest things to do" list. I may even die before I complete the final draft, but at least at that time I know someone will be able to read what I have begun and continue my mission.
At the times in our lives when things seem so unsurmountable you would rather move in a direction that does not involve it, one should always remember that making the attempt is greater than any end result. Even if the possiblity of satisfactory completion is beyond the realm of imagination, it would be better to die prior to the final draft. Someone, maybe no one you know, will have the same dream and be able to pick up where you left off. Begin to believe in your power of inspiration, for good things will come from those inspired.
