Inspiration and Creativity

Good Morning,
 
Inspiration
c.1303, "immediate influence of God or a god," especially that under which the holy books were written, from O.Fr. inspiration, from L.L. inspirationem (nom. inspiratio), from L. inspiratus, pp. of inspirare "inspire, inflame, blow into," from in-"in" + spirare "to breathe" (see spirit).
 
I can't tell you how many times I have been Inspired but stopped there....
 
Sometimes, it is best with the creative process to just start.... our analytical human self starts preparing and planning, and that is where it ends...
 
Being creative starts with just starting, and it will just evolve as it goes...
By beginning..others notice our progress and begin to get inspired themselves....
 
 
The next part isn't really visible until we open ourselves to just allowing it to become....to breathe...to allow for inspiration....
 
This goes for any new thing that we are creating from a new path in life to art.....
 
Just starting... with no destination in mind... opens us to the Divine inspiration, and the creation energies....
 
All the Universe is waiting for is us to begin........
 
Here is the Thought for the day!
 
It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure,
to embrace the new.
 
But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful.
 
There is more security in the adventurous and exciting,
for in movement there is life,
 
and in change there is power.
