To reiterate my problem, my rants in recent weeks have been consistently about the negativity that has taken hold to our society. Living in this environment is next to impossible to be creative especially when you are over worked, stressed out and genuinely unhappy.
A creative person or spiritual being if you will, needs time to refuel and step away from the chaos in order to give birth to artistic value. We are adventurous souls that get bored easily with the every day mundane. This boredom encourages us to branch out into unknown territories quite often.
We are deemed as flighty at times and never given credit for our general passion for knowledge. Rarely do people understand why something so trivial to them can mean so much to us. Countless hours of hard work goes into every meticulous stroke on our canvas; no matter what medium we choose to use.
Us humans, we are not so different; we all live for the pursuit of happiness. We all want to love and be loved, even the darkest of evils hold some good deep down inside. I think these passions should be celebrated and embraced. Think of how colorful the world could be if everyone chose a path outside of their every day comfort zone. But be careful not to stray too far, we do have a tendency to get carried away.
You see, the beauty of art is it is limitless. Those who strive for greatness knows there is no end to knowledge and never stop learning how to improve their craft. The best part of creativity is the rewards are bountiful. It builds the person we are from the inside out. We have the ability to reach others on levels they may not have been aware even existed. Opening our hearts and minds to a realm that is more conducive to pleasantries.
There is not one person on this entire planet that was not given a talent that is unique to themselves. I do not accept when someone says they are not creative, they simply need to be shown what their creativity might be.
Today, I want to be grateful for my gifts and to show my gratitude, I am putting a piece of it out into the world. Sometimes we all need to step outside our comfort zone. This always leads to new and exciting discoveries. However, other times straying too far from what we know also can potentially make us lose sight of where we came from and that does not fair well for our art.
