Where does creative inspiration come from?

“The acceptance of a contradiction is the telling of a story”

I just saw a wonderful talk on TED from an Indian director named Shekhar Kapur. His understanding of how to tell a story involved understanding dualities, accepting contradiction, and allowing chaos to flow. He was clear to explain that the resolution of storytelling was not what he strived for. A truly enlightening talk. His work includes Elizabeth The Golden Age” which was truly a great film.

What is our story? How do we seek to tell our story through our at times complex dualities? How is this developed? Does this involve learning to let go of these “complex dualities?” Do they all have to make sense?
