Odd question but do you know your creative muse?

Yea I know this sounds weird but I just felt the need to ask this. In case anyone's confused a muse is:
dictionay.com wrote:muse [myooz] Show IPA
verb (used without object), mused, mus·ing.
1.
to think or meditate in silence, as on some subject.
2.
Archaic. to gaze meditatively or wonderingly.
verb (used with object), mused, mus·ing.
3.
to meditate on.
4.
to comment thoughtfully or ruminate upon.
In this case its anything that usually inspires you creatively... like for me I can focus and create a lot of interesting stuff while listening to looping game music. Mostly Final Fantasy Boss music... some music from Castlevania... sometimes some actual classic rock from the 80s helps me to. So what inspires you?

I come up with ideas by thinking. There's nothing big behind it, at leas tas fas as I know.
If the topic is about what intrigues me, it'd be infinity. Infinity is creep. And fascinating. I catch myself thinking about parallel universes, time and the universe all the time.

Food is amazing

I always get inspired by watching videos on youtube, mostly let's plays and videos of mario games or rom hacks or smbx levels

Also by listening to video game music and then trying to build levels that fit the music
