Of what origin the word merely: a body of water, a marsh, a boundary marker, a sharp shaping blade, or a measurement of value? Merely a small insignificant of no great importance small volume single breath? Merely seems small, just enough to be missed by a slumbering soul. Yet what volume arouses or awakens the soul that slumbers unaware, unconscious of incompetence in breathing. Once challenged awakened and aware of incompetence, how does the soul respond? Must an immediate measureable action be witnessed to validate a soul seeded for change? Breath changed chaos in the symphonic movement of the universe. The Ancient Song of Integration and Movement released by Breathing Love, now held back merely by the inspiration of hate. Inspire… to receive breath, to push breath into a receiver, to force breath into an unconscious receiver. I have experienced that the quality of air one receives does inspire creativity. Oh frozen soul that lies beneath breathe in, breathe in Infinite Soul Yes breath find home, O Love live into me: Yes live into me that I be rightly mended And incarnate the nature you intended!

Oh frozen soul that lies beneath breathe in, breathe in Infinite Soul
Yes breath find home, O Love live into me:
Yes live into me that I be rightly mended
And incarnate the nature you intended!

If one is truly inspired, then action must follow. People are inspired in lots of ways. An ad on TV might inspire someone to go buy something. If they actually go buy it, then I'd say they were inspired to buy. If they say, "Oh that looks like a nice product", but do nothing, then I'd say they were not inspired to buy. People are inspired by others though example. We admire others that achieve something or live their life in a particular way. If that example giver us the energy to achieve as well, or make changes in our own lives, then I'd say we were inspired to do so by the one we admire. However, if we don't make that change, inspiration did not occur. It would appear then that a person can inspire another with or without even knowing they are doing so, but the person receiving the inspiration must do something in order for the circle to be completed. In my own life, I never really waited for someone to inspire me. I have always taken action through self motivation, influenced by everything and everyone I have ever known. We are products of our environment, but we must "go do" something. I think it was Thomas Edison who said that "success is 10% inspiration and 90% persperation". That rings true to my ears. Don't wait to be inspired - ACT!!! Inspiration without subsequent action amounts to nothing really. If one is truly inspired, then action must follow. People are inspired in lots of ways.

Inspiration to me is that spirit, the fire in the belly, the light, the breath, that causes my heart to beat more quickly. When I am inspired, it's on a visceral level, I feel the beating of an angels wing perhaps. I see the light, shining from anothers' eyes or being. Once we saw a flutist Claudia Tulip whose playing was inspired, it was as if the music moved through her entire being. The music moved her to play, she was moving with the music flowing through her, becoming one with her. She was open to express.   Creative people I think are ones whose senses are highly atuned to the energies around, then the vast pool of ideas is there and we are drawn to a certain creation or creative process. If we don't heed the call then another may connect with the idea or concept we envisioned and bring forth a creation. If i don't make my own creation no one will ever know that which I would bring forth. Some have said it is not ours to judge that which inspires us to create, yet to simply allow and bring it or express it, for in that creation is our own unique expression. These are some of my thoughts on the fire the passion the fuel of creation. It’s interesting with the photo of the heart afire.
