The Inpiration: A pane to new lives, and perceptions

What artists, composers, lyricists, musicians, illusionists, and fashionistas need are inspirations. Things that inspire them, move them to touch something: hearts of humans. Inspirations seem a big word. It seems as if it is a kind of spiritual element, full of rejuvenating energy. Well, inspirations are only phenomena which takes place around the beholder. What the person experiences, is an inspiration. So, pratically, inspirations are what makes an artist alive. No one can draw without an idea, can he? Or, no one can draw and illuminate a beautiful artwork without inspirations, can he? Or maybe, Da Vinci, had no inpirations at all? Impossible. When a person opens up a new point of view to the world, he, is drawing a new hue and shade as the inner surface on the world, through his eyes. There are 2 classes of people in this world: Optimists and Pessimists. In an pessimists, the world is in a black hue of greyish linings, not a scent of white or brightness in it. It’s just so dull, so dead! On the other hand, an optimists colour. What will it be? Red? Yellow? Neon? White? No. The answer is, its transparent. They will just accept whatever that happens, and make the best out of it. It applies to the essential human life as well. When people open their eyes in the morning, they would like to forget the blemished past of last night’s incident, and relive yesterday’s dream. Its very normal to want a perfect life, isn’t it? I would actually like to link human, to artists. All humans are artists. Wrong? We all paint our own picture. Dull or coulourful, it’s up to us. But now, what happens is that, everything influences. Stock prices coming up and down, petrol prices dropping well above the previous limit causes the pressure on most citizens. These are all inspirations to the drawing of people, negative inspirations at least. Its really sad looking at these political undergrowth happening around us. Sickening to say. A person has to live life the way he wants to live it, and not the way others want him to live it the way they want him to. In short, live is to be lived the way the beholder wants to. We see many engineers, phyisicsts, chemists, doctors, biologists, lawyers. Why not we ponder, where did these people get their degree from? Now, where did they get their diploma from? Trace back further, where did they graduate? In high school? Vocationals? And, where and when did they start? Simple. Each educated person starts his journey when he reaches Form 4, based on Malaysian rankings. On this Form 4 rung of ladder, a person will have to decide which route he has to take.” Should I take up arts? I want to be an artist. But, others are taking science. They are in the science astream. I think I should follow him. He is right. ” The above bubble thought may have occured in a Malaysian student. Understand this, the mentality of Malaysian citizens is that arts play a substitutional role in the industry. Science and business, on the other hand, play the vital role in keeping the country alive. Therefore, there is the pressure of parents or the society on the kid to pursue the science stream. That, is the way that other people have wanted this person to take. This comes to place where the above idealogy is mentioned. A person should only take the route he wants, and not the route other people want him to take. I mean, is it necessary to follow others’ path? You may say that there are very very rich and successful people in the world like Donald Trump. Alright, that may be too far. Let’s just compare some peer who has achieved some good results in a very popular field: engineering. Does it mean that one has to take up engineering to succeed in life? This person may be very talented in architecture design. But he sees that many people are pursuing the science field, racing in terms of scientific technologies. As the icing of the cake, there is a successor in that field. A very good one instead. Therefore, he puts his dreams on hold, and starts moving along the popular line. However, this person fails to understand that ony few have succeeded. Yes, many people are pursuing the line, moving along it very faithfully, but how many have succeeded? There is a very big probability that these people might just be the same as him, moving along the line inspired negatively by others. And he in the end, becomes a part of those statistics, and fails as a person. I mentioned that he might have put his dreams on hold. Yes. How long can you hold then? How long? Are you sure that you can live a lifetime? In fact, how long is a lifetime? 50 years? 10 years? 5 years? A month? A week? What about, tomorrow? How do we know our life span? Accidents happen and involve lives. Can you be a hundred percent sure that you will be a complement of those statistics? People die in car accidents. Do you think they have ever thought of being a death data, let alone being involved in an accident? Dear reader, no. Everyone is different in nature but same in thoughts. We want to keep alive. Even a dying person of natural death will still try his best to gasp for more air to live, to prolong his temporary immortality. But the truth is, no one on this planet can predict his or others’ lifetime and lifespan. So, if he puts his acrchitect designing programme on hold, when will he continue it? Will he be able to continue it? Will he still feel the same about architecture design later on? This is why people face the problem with jobs. Lack of jobs. Why? We want experts. Thats a fact. We all want experts to do our job. This is why job interviews are carried out to search for the perfect man for the job. If one is not interested in the field he studies in, how can he possibly fare well in the interview? The society is a very cruel part in our lives. They are the inspirations of our lives, of our picture. This is the only reason I wrote this blog: to inspire you to pursue your own dreams by opening a pane of window in your life. A pane only, not the whole window. Then you will be able to find out how well you can acually see when you are walking the path you are taking which may not be the most popular choice. You may try opening the main door and walk a broad way. But, are you sure that you are going to find true happiness in that way? You may be walking the most popular way in the world, but will you be happy? Walk the way you want, even if it may be only a part of a window pane. You will find sunshine and joy by doing what you dream, and to have sweeter dreams of the success you reap of your dreams.

The joy of the world lies in your hands and by moving along the dreams of your choice, there will be another dream, which, might just be the sweetest dream tomorrow.

Arrivederci, ciao!
