Realization (from journal: 6/21/05)

I came to a startling realization today. I was trying to spend my fathers day gift card of $25 to Barnes & Noble, looking through every possible book imaginable. There were a few that piqued my interest, but I realized I did not want to get another "How to" book. I don't want people telling me HOW to create something. I think I need to discover and experiment (granted this ends in more failue than success, but it's the whole Edison Process). I thought I might want a coffee table book of my favorite master artist when I realized - I don't have one! More than that, I don't have a/an artist who I look up to. Granted, that could be my own ignorance but I don't have any particular artist I would WANT to hang on my wall or have a book about!(?)
Now... as I pondered these things later, I could hear God tugging on my spirit.

"Let Me be your Master, Inspriation, Guide, Mentor"

And I know these words to be true. I trust them.

But if that is the case - why do I keep looking for inspiration outside Him?
