Inspiration is an odd thing. Everyone likes it when they find it. It motivates, drives and fuels creativity. Often times I hear people say they cannot even begin to work without it.

As long as there have been people on this planet, inspiration has led to the development of many new things. One person sees another’s work and then the next person adds to it. That is what makes the world so wonderful.

Sometimes people want to hoard their ideas to themselves. They are insecure in their own creativity. I receive comments all the time about how I need to copyright my creations. I will admit I am not a lawyer and do not understand the law. What I do know is that I have watched as copyright battles drained artists and others of their very life. Yes, I want my creations to remain mine, but spending my day defending myself in court is a day wasted from creating.

I know it is a risk to make this statement in a public form, but I would rather explore and expand my creative life than have to set in a court room. Besides, what if my work does inspire someone to create their best work?What are your thoughts?
