A question of taste

No taste buds is involved here.  I just think on how likes and dislike can impact creativity.  How can someone like an area and it is sure to colour what that person doing.  I do like making jewelry.  My like in jewelry making have an impact on my soap making.  I do have a few soap mold that are shaped like gems.  I do like making soap in those mold and put bright blue or bright red colour for thorse soaps.  The same goes for mythology.  My liking in mythology had inspired me in some of my writing.  I had put a ton of mythological references in a story.

It makes me realize that likes can be the sources of inspiration.  It can be seen in what can be done, as a result.  So, what push each of us in our own like and dislike?  It may sound a trivial area to explore.  I think it is important because likes and taste can be part of inspiration.  It is akin of talking.  To learn talking, toddlers need to have prerequisite.  It's include eyes contact and alternating turns to play.  Those two examples are part of the prerequisite for talking.  Because of that, I start to think that inspiration must have components that is the make up of inspiration.  Finally, inspiration can be like building blocks.  The sources like taste, comes together and form the inspiration.  Then, it flow to the mind and manifest itself.

Inspiration fascinate me.  Getting closer to it is like getting an illumination.  I can pinpoint more closely how it work.  Ultimately, I hope to pull the strings of inspiration and see what will come out of that.  It is to get closer to the source of inspiration and getting closer to the muse that murmur in my ear, the muse that put picture and scene in my mind.  I want to see the muses themselves, as a source of inspiraton.  In that way, I would better understand how I get inspired.  I want to understand and know more my creative self.
