What does it mean to be inspired?

Post by Socrates »

The word 'inspire' has the sound of inhalation about it. Like we are breathing in the spirit of creativity from others, embodying it and then we a-spire - which has the sound of 'without' breath about it - exhaling the embodied spirit of the other.

Do you feel you are inspired? I consider myself divinely inspired.

What do you think of Nietzsche's 'way of the creator'?

I am a Goddess of affection not only effection.

I like it, Drone.

"But the worst enemy you can encounter will also be you, yourself; you lie in wait for yourself in caves and woods.
Lonely one, you are going the way to yourself. And your way leads past yourself and your seven devils. You will be a heretic to yourself and a witch and soothsayer and fool and doubter and unholy one and a villain. You must wish to consume yourself in your own flame: how could you wish to become new unless you had first become ashes!
Lonely one, you are going the way of the creator: you would create a God for yourself out of your seven devils."

Nietzsche seems to indicate a solitary path for personal growth.

I've lived out a few years with Nietzschian philosophies about and I completely understand what you mean.
