Inspiration constipation

Me:

Yeah, I'm tired of being creative.

For that go to yesterday's blog: "bloodbank conversation " .You might even laugh. I've re-edited it.

Did two creative blogs already in the past day and there's so much more I need to do before I doze off.

So this comment already shows you two types who inspire me:

1. Those who create. I don't need to visit the wonders of the human world to ooh and aah. I see it in abandoned alleys where once three hundred years ago in the Alfama some artist fashioned tiles that have withstood the chips and grime of time. Or street art under a bridge in a small Norwegian town. There are artists everywhere in every corner.

2. Those who have the energy and drive to do what needs to be done, regardless of whether that's external like fighting a fire or internal, like fighting their own demons. I'm not blaming those who give up or just wear out. It's just that I don't have that level of energy and apparently I'm not alone.

In my travels I meet many who inspire me. Kindness inspires me. Rational thinkers inspire me. People who go with the flow inspire me. Those who live each day in the present, those who see into the future, those who dig up the past ... they all inspire me.

But one person?

That's asking too much. Many have helped me at various stages of life. But I've never had a true mentor.
