Some say inspiration comes from God, others proclaim that’s a farce; does it really matter? What is the concept of inspiration? Are there right and wrong inspirations; if so how can you tell the difference?

The entire concept of inspiration is the ability to imagine something. Many decades ago before the invention of airplanes someone looked up and watched birds flying and gliding through the skies. That person said to themselves imagine what it would be like to fly. That imagination turned into the inspiration to develop mans first flying machine. Many decades before that someone looking at the typical horse and buggy and imagined how much faster it would be to drive a horseless carriage from town to town. That imagination turned into the inspiration to develop mans first car. Do you think women would be where they are today if some woman somewhere hadn’t imagined it first? Can products or companies be advertised without someone imagining the advertisement to be used before it ever hit the billboards, television and radios? No; in fact if people didn’t have an imagination there wouldn’t be an advertisement field at all.

Inspiration and imagination actually works together to benefit everyone concerned. Some people proclaim things were made out of desperation and while that may be true someone had to imagine how it would look and work before making it. For instance a totally circular rock is merely a circular rock until you experiment with the object and found it rolled. Then you merely have a rolling rock; big deal right? Someone had to imagine that circular rock moving a cart in order to build the cart. Sure things are made mostly out of what some deem a necessity, but without the imagination to develop it in the first place it wouldn’t exist. From those inspired people others came along with an imagination to make the item even better then it had been before.

Art for instance is inspired by the individual creating the piece of art work. They draw or paint what they see as they perceive their objects in their points of views. This art has extended to the artwork done for Anime shows as well as Comic Books or Mangas. Actual photographs are a form of art work regardless of what anyone says. Art is in the eye of the individual doing the drawing, painting or taking the picture. Art is the ability to capture a reaction of something or someone be it a smile, a laugh, a specific glint in the eyes, etc. The naked body has been used as an art form for centuries all of a sudden people of society thinks it’s just fine for young teens to run around in micro mini skirts and dresses showing their butts every time the wind blows or they bend wrong but it’s not alright to have naked baby photos (not showing private areas) in their family albums? To me that way of thinking is very twisted and even nasty. Those people that promote such thoughts and beliefs are filthy minded people within our society. The other nastier people are those people that takes sexual photo shots of people whether male or female and exploits those pictures publicly. When I say sexual photographs I’m referring to the deliberate showing of personal and private parts of another’s individual body of under aged individuals. There is such a thing as a tasteful art and non tasteful smut. A good genuine artist actually knows the difference. Most parents don’t take pictures of their children to deliberately embarrass them; they do it because those pictures remind them of different things their child had done in that time frame. To the parent those pictures are the most precious things they have and for outsiders to proclaim a parent is immoral or doing or had done immoral things solely based on innocent photographs leads me to wonder just how defiled and nasty our culture and society has become. Am I putting down people that wear micro mini and mini skirts and dresses? No; by all means people should be allowed to dress any way they want without ridicule, but what I am saying is that anyone wearing any type of clothing that can or does show your underwear as a teen or an adult you nor anyone have any right to slander, malign or condemn any parent or guardian for having “somewhat provocative” baby pictures of you in a family album. T a parent photographs of their beloved children are art and priceless.
