how to: Creativity!!!

I was thinking about creativity today. Being creative is possible in so many ways. Creative writing, is one way.  Creativity can come out in a million ways, and all these ways foster growth of your spirit and expansion of your mind. When you sit down to a project, you have to brainstorm on ways to accomplish your work, or art. This is an amazing way to keep your mind moving, to create is a way of life.

Which ways can you be creative? In art, easily. Art in any form, be it painting, drawing, singing, dancing, acting, sewing, photography, writing are all ways to remain close to your true self, to express your soul. When you create something, you decide to put yourself out there where other’s can see “you”, the real you, and you don’t even care. Because you are doing what your soul asks, you are feeding your self and adding to your own, mesmerizing BEing!

I make everything from cards to sticker’s, t- shirt’s, Daily Deliciousness Cards, hair falls and herbal care. Everytime I make something new I feel like I truly accomplished something. I fed my soul and that is all I need to survive(oh, that and money…)

I wish we could all do exactly what we loved all the time and make money at it! The world would ne full of happy, creative souls and I can also envision a barter system taking place… this is my dream, so I can ‘dream’ however I want… I want what that person created and he or she wants what I made, so we’ll exchange and WahLAH… everyone gets what they want and are happy about it! Yay! I bet art would come to a whole new level, if this were to happen. I wonder…. This does happen to an extent, in a lot of sub cultures of any given city across our country right now. But, what would it BE like if all society had to deal this way? So many people have forgotten how to be creative. They are merely robots, sitting in these little rooms doing the same tasks everyday. Nothing changes,EVER! I know some jobs can’t help but be repetitive, but when you get off work you can re-awaken and CREATE! Most people don’t sadly! They stay on robodic mode, more and more until it becomes natural.  I would die, really… my soul and I would shrivel up, no more Melissa Magic!

I guess I have pointed out enough for today. Just create, make art, keep your  mind active and express your souls desire. You’ll be happy and feel closer to your true BEing!
