I don't think I could choose one. Everythings so precious, in its own way. I don't think I could live without feeling a cool autumn breeze, or without hearing music. Tasting ice cold Sweet Tea, or smelling a cup of hot apple cider. Or seeing the girl I love, or hearing her voice... Its all so Important to me, and I would have a hard time finding inspiration from just one.

I think I am similar to Guru in that I am a auditory learner, but I will take an idea or concept read or heard & "ponder" the concept. I think my real inspiration comes from what I do with what I take in & not so much how or what is taken in. I remember once in my youth walking after a rainstorm & seeing the sky refected in a puddle of rain water. This simple thing set me on a reflective journey of the nature of here for months. Inspiration is all around us, & any sense can be used to trigger it, but the true "souce" must be us, otherwise all would be inspired at all times.

No inspiration. I am, however, an auditory person. My emotional life can be greatly affected through what i hear. I am an auditory learner. Tell me once and I grasp the concept. Show me a visual -- not so much.
As philosophers are sometimes hearers of "the feel of truth" or "the ring of truth", I would also say that many are also auditory learners.

Sight. There is a reason that the eyes are the windows of the soul. You can learn a lot by looking into someone's eyes, and the sight that comes in throught the eyes informs you of everything.

Since i am a visual person, it is the sense of sight but it might also be hearing.

Sight because we can see light and the wonders of this world..without sight life is very miserable and not meaningful.
Sight is very important of all senses.

Sight. A close second would be hearing.

as someone of the new generation my eyes are my most used sense, but hearing music, sounds of nature, sounds of the city, that has always been very moving to me

"Hearing/" makes me see, hear, taste and touch everything through a good book (although we require eyes to read, what we read is what we hear from the author who writes his/her words).
