Where Does Inspiration Come From?

---

Inspiration is everywhere.

In what we see, hear, live and encounter every day.

I strongly believe in chance.

Some of the most meaningful experiences in my life have felt accidental.

But perhaps, without knowing it, we prepare ourselves for them before they happen.

A word, an image, an encounter may appear unexpectedly.

Yet something inside us may already be ready to recognize it.

Not everyone does.

And what passes unnoticed may return.

But if its energy is never received, it slowly fades.

Perhaps inspiration is not rare.

What is rare is noticing it before its energy disappears.
