inspiration and enthusiasm that is
the "something more" that we might experience

In principle, or in a sense, I tend to agree 
with that kind of wording, provided ... But I 
think I'll skip over my "more specific" 
explanation, for now, seeing as I just 
recently mentioned about trying to turn over 
some kind of new leaf that wouldn't have too 
many of my modifiers on it, and ... Besides, 
it's supper time here!

Speculatively,
Mauri

PS Not that I eat all that speculatively, 
but ...

PS Not to mention but/"but" for a change.
