Garden Space

One of my favorite forms of entertainment and inspiration is watching process videos. How things are made, and art development. In my opinion, inspired creation is what brings life into life’s structures. It’s not always practical, to live by inspiration. There are so many other facets of life that legitimately require your presence. However, if you are struggling to find the balance between filling your heart’s desires and the practicality of life - hear this - Firstly, every aspect of your life benefits from your presence, and with that, inspired action is open to follow. Part of the beauty of life is discovering what you didn’t know and being willing to experience how you, as a person develop in that experience. And that in itself is inspired creation.

Secondly, inspiration needs a holder, a structure, a process, and a medium. That’s you. You’re the holder. It’s up to you to give your practice structure, and a place to develop, using the constraints you might have in your life as a starting point, not as a hindrance.  What you gain in perspective from a situational limit might be an important aspect of how you express yourself creatively.

Inspiration needs a home. It needs a garden. A place to rest, to feel safe, and loved. Give your inspiration the structure, tools, time, and a place to feel free.

It's not always easy, I know. But the first step is making space in your life and commit to being a vehicle for expression - however that looks for you. Build your skills and have faith that inspiration will find you with consistency.
