RAYS of INSPIRATION
it is interesting for me to realize time after time how inspiration works for me. when at home (meaning in western europe), i often feel dull and uninspired. to get inspiration i need to look at life as i SEE it in a very abstract fashion, i need to pull it apart, to push it to the edge so i can sqeeze out some inspirational drops. like a dry lemon that needs some hard sqeezing to leave some juice.
when i am outside this environment wondering around in foreign lands, the contrast is big enough that i can just look at ease and get inspiration anywhere i look. it is so relaxing to be inspired all the time. i realized that again in december when i came back from a month in japan. back in holland i hit a really dry streak of ZERO INSPIRATION again. little by little it is giving way to some rays of inspiration mixed with some fresh tea, coffee and some apple pie (with whipped cream).
