Some choose not to think creatively, in favor of more pragmatic pursuits. I use the word 'creative' as a noun to cover the broad range of individuals who think and express themselves in ways that are not the common, most direct ways many have adopted simply because they work. Visual artists, performers, producers, and even business types who find unusual ways to solve problems are not content to accept methods and perceptions that are the first ones on the shelf and easily accessible. Function and accessibility isn't the standard and their primary motivation...as to beliefs, I'm not sure I thought about it in those terms, but do see the universe as inherently creative. It continues to test and try new things and responds to obstacles by simply finding another way around. Acknowledging that seems to me to be just good thinking.

I was wondering...when did the term 'creative' become the noun to express one who is creative? Is it out of respect for the ultimate Creator, that people do not want to refer to humans as creators? Some erroneous piouty? But we are one, fragmented consciousness of the ONE energy field. We are co-creators at the very least. All were born creative, coz all were born to design their own lives and draw their own realities into being.I think GOd/SOurce/Universe is 'tickled' when we accept this place. And I believe it so much that I've committed my life to helping people re-connect consciously with the Creator and the creator within.What do you think? :-)Lisa P.S. it's Sunday night and i feel like a deep and meaningful with a fellow creatOR. are you on Skype?

What do you think? :-)
