Embracing Your Creative Self

Expressions of beauty through art and creativity is one of the highest honors you can give to your Creator.  In being creative, you are a creator.  Bending and shaping your world into what you desire.    By using the talents that you have been given intuitivly and respectfully you are paying homage and you will be blessed by doing so. 

What talents do you possess?

People have told me that they are not creative in any way or that they don't have creative bone in their body.  If that is something you would say, I kindly remind you to look at everything that you do and if it as a talent, because it is.  If you choose to look at what you do as creative and flowing, your experiences will become more creative and flowing.

Abraham Maslow says:
“The key question isn’t “What fosters creativity?” But it is why in God’s name isn’t everyone creative? Where was the human potential lost? How was it crippled? I think therefore a good question might be not why do people create? But why do people not create or innovate? We have got to abandon that sense of amazement in the face of creativity, as if it were a miracle if anybody created anything.”

Vincent van Gogh says:
“If you hear a voice within you say, ‘You cannot paint,’ then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.”
