Create a garden with wind chimes

Looking at the wind chimes outside the window, an idea came to mind that I could make a decoration like this, and I started drawing it in my notebook.

Inspiration

As a result of contact with the object, thoughts and activities develop internally. It appears as the beginning of an internal development through exposure to other people's stories, works, and events.

  • When I hear a story or see something, thoughts begin to move within me.
  • I will explain how the idea came about, starting with what I came across that sparked a reaction.
After coming across this, an idea expanded within me.

If you rely too much on external cues, you may end up chasing stimuli without having determined the nucleus from which you can begin to develop.

Initiation

It unfolds from the inner core to outer events and actions. It appears as a person launching an activity based on an idea within themselves.

  • Connect the ideas you have been warming inside to activities and efforts that you can try outside.
  • I will explain how the idea came about, depending on which core within me it originated from.
I want to start my activities from this idea inside me.

If you are biased toward development from the inner core, it may be difficult to incorporate other developments that arise from contact with external objects.
