True inspriation

Is it possible to get an original idea: Something that is completely your own.

I find it difficult to even conceptualize. Almost everything is based off of something else for inspiration, or a demand. Is there anything that was designed based on something that had never been created or even thought of?

Have there ever been any circumstance where there wasn't any problem or situation that did not create an idea?

Even dreams, which have some bizarre and unexplainable occurrences are often theorized to stem from bits and pieces of thought that our minds mulled over during the day and put together into a sequence. Perhaps our minds generate so many ideas at once, we just cannot pin down or separate what is originally our own, and what is following what we're immersed in at the time.

It is said we only use a small fraction of our brain. What could people think up if more of that was accessed? Will that ever be possible? I'm almost positive none of these ideas have never been thought of before. In fact, I'm certain. I'm certain the majority of our thoughts are only relaying information we've seen or heard from another source. The mind draws the information from the source of inspiration, and conveys it in a unique way, but is that really unique if the information is not?

Maybe our minds will never know a unique thought. But that's what being intellectually aware is about. Generating and swapping new ideas. Often about things that are current that need to be changed. Does drawing a new idea from an already established idea count as a new idea, even though there is other information presenting the platform for that new idea already in place?

Maybe I'm not making any sense. I suppose you'll have to think about it.
