Beloved Gloria,
in the paragraph:
"What does inspiration cost? It costs nothing. It is a total gift. It is free. It comes to you willingly. You may also have to look for it. What you look for, you will find. Your life is on a scavenger hunt for inspiration. Nevertheless, inspiration surrounds you. It is right before you. Keep your eyes open. Inspiration wants to be seen."
I wonder if we have to take "scavenger hunt" in the literal sense or in its referring to"A game in which individuals or teams try to locate and bring back miscellaneous items on a list." (Wordnik Dict.)
The literal sense seems a little harsh to me.
Thanks
