Inspiration

I wonder where inspiration comes from as I consider my first blog post. Does it start with a small idea, something of interest, something of beauty, something we desire? Are we tempted then to start a mechanised search for similar ideas and ways that others have treaded this path before? I considered looking at blogs of other folks who are writing within the mental health space but decided instead to let ideas come to me to start. Today I have been in quite a structured mode of thinking - checking emails, speaking to contractors and banks and things that are necessary but do not seem to spark creativity.

Instead I will wait for an observation to happen, and create my next post there! I think inspiration will most likely come after an interesting interaction with a client or friend, a discussion within supervision, a book, the news, a movie or a passing thought during meditation. It might be a point of view on the world of human behaviour or a topic I want to share. I can only hope it brings someone something that helps.
