Muse.

A muse is the spirit of artist’s inspiration.

It is the source of soul in every artist’s work.

What do you think about traveling?

For me, traveling is a form of stress reliever. Some people may find it in alcohol, some in , some in reading, some in shopping, and many others. But for me, Kwon Jiyong, I find it in traveling.

If you look in dictionary, what is the meaning of traveling?

Consisting of 2 syllables; “tra•vel” means:

1. To go from one place to another, as by car, train, plane, or ship; take a trip;

2. To move or go from one place or point to another.

As for me, I find another meaning of traveling. The word still consist of 2 syllables, but the meanings are:

1. To find inspiration; to see people; to see the unnoticed;

2. To think about the current surroundings; to imagine myself in other people's shoes;

3. To distract my messed up mind; to run away from things I don't like.

Coward, aren't I? But the first and the second point are true anyways. As a writer—a romance novelist to be exact—I need to see many events and people; I need to see how they act and react; I need to notice the unnoticed and turn those unnoticed things into a sequence of words and sentences. Thus, I turned those words and sentences into a paragraph, then a chapter, and finally a book with complete storyline, characters, and its emotions.

For some of you, you might think that my job is easy, I just need to write some words then turned it into a sentence, then turned it again into a paragraph, and the process repeated until I finally finish a book. But it isn't that easy guys. You need the reason to write those words, you need the inspiration to write each chapters, therefore, you need a muse to write a complete book.

That... has been missing from me since 3 years ago.

I couldn't find my muse anymore.

That's why I travel as a stress reliever—to complete those 3 meanings simultaneously. But again, I find it difficult to feel my third meaning of traveling. My mind is still messed up until this day, at my 378 days of travel, and I haven't completely runaway from the things I don't like. To feel the third meaning is as hard as finding my muse to write—FYI, I've been looking for the muse for 3 freaking years, and I haven't found it yet.

Well… I guess I have to keep traveling then.
