*~ Thoughts on Inspiration ~* *Imagining that art, any art* *comes out of nowhere* *like it is a brand new concept* *connotes a foolish lack of wisdom* *The greater truth is* *that everything, no matter the art form* *every word written* *each verse that is composed* *comes out of something that precedes it* *It is a chain of human responses* *passing on from other impressions* *and the power of the written word* *can never be standardized or mechanized* *it is unique unto itself* *Learning how to feel* *by listening to the nature of your mind* *acquiring inspiration, making something* *all your own out of things absorbed* *from echo�s and borrowings* *and just living* *� April 1, 2005* *By Carole Mathys*

Inspiration is a great gift. To use it when it is granted, to share it, that is an even greater gift to all who share. Thank you for this offering, Carole. Love and peace to you. Regis
