Yes, you are creative and in slow, languid times, creativity peers out of your soul like a field mouse from its burrow at night.

The call to make art is a call to action, belief, commitment, discovery, and engagement and not necessarily in that order.

Creative freedom is prosperity for the soul.

Creativity isn't about avoiding frustration. It's about pushing through and coming out the other side.

Bird of the skystill bound to the earth,soaring to unimaginable heightsyet returning to perch in the willow.Death is near, always nearand so...is lifeeven in the ashes.Rise Up Phoenix.Live. Fly. Create!

We all have a god and a poet inside us. The poet, the human; the god, the divine.It is by the grace of our god that we can find the divine inspiration with which to wax poetic about our human experiences.

If there was ever a time to create, it is now!

On the great canvas of timeWe all create our own masterpiece.Choreographing our steps across minutes and hoursDancing over the daysPainting pictures over months andWriting our stories on the years.Singing our songs that echo across eons.We are all a thread in the talent tapestry.A snapshot in the cosmic, collective collage.

Empathy is a creative act. It is the act of imagining ourselves not only in another's shoes, but perhaps inhabiting their very heart and soul.
