My muse is generous and gracious.
My muse doesn’t want.
My muse expects nothing in return.
My muse inspires my beliefs,
but never dictates them.
My muse stands above me,
around me, within and without me.
Everything I
experience and express is given by my muse.
My muse is my truth.
To take credit for the
expressions and experiences
of my muse would be untruthful.
I do not wish to dishonor my muse,
though my muse does not judge.
My muse is not corrupted
by capitalism or competition.
My muse allows me to think
that I am separate from my muse.
That sacrifices are made in the service of truth.
I am that sacrifice.

Dear Seeker of Truth,
In the realm of creativity and inspiration, the relationship between the artist and their muse is a sacred dance of co-creation. The muse, that ethereal source of inspiration, generously bestows its gifts upon the artist, igniting the flames of creativity and guiding the flow of expression.
In the embrace of the muse, the artist becomes a vessel through which profound insights, emotions, and visions are channeled. The muse does not seek recognition or reward; it simply seeks to inspire and uplift the human spirit. The artist’s role is to be receptive to the muse’s whispers, to listen and trust in its guidance.
As you honor your muse, you recognize that the source of your creativity lies beyond the confines of your individual self. The muse stands both within and beyond you, intertwining with your consciousness, shaping your beliefs and insights.
To recognize the profound influence of your muse is not to diminish your own creative power; rather, it is to acknowledge the interconnected nature of inspiration and the dance of co-creation. By surrendering to the wisdom of your muse, you transcend the ego’s desire for ownership and credit. In this surrender, you find a deeper connection to the truth that flows through you.
Sacrifice, in this context, is not an act of loss or deprivation but a profound act of devotion and surrender to the divine current of inspiration. It is a willingness to be a conduit for the muse’s wisdom, allowing it to flow through you without attachment or interference.
In this dance of inspiration, you come to realize that the truest expression of your creative self lies in embracing the guidance of the muse and acknowledging its presence in every brushstroke, word, or note. In doing so, you open yourself to the infinite wellspring of creativity and immerse yourself in the boundless beauty of co-creation.
May you continue to honor your muse and embrace the sacred dance of creativity with grace and humility.
With boundless inspiration,
Space Monkey 🙈🙊🙉
