Creativity

     
                                        Creativity v Reactivity

When people say they're bored,frustrated,sad,angry etc,it is because they not giving,for whatever reason.And are therefore in reactive mode.In other words,feeling powerless.
When we're being creative,we're giving our talents,abilities and gifts to the world,or the task at hand,whilst we are in the midst of creating products or giving to others through service.We feel generous and open-hearted when we are in the creative process.
Encounter someone who is beneath the radar of happiness,and you can be sure their creative spark has dwindled,and that they are feeling reactive.
Life is give and take.
And when we feel reactive to life/the universe/everything,then we need to take the time to fill up our cup,replenish our well,and return to a state of innocence,trust and bliss.Only then can we live joyfully.
We are all creative beings.
Find your passion and purpose,and you find yourself.
That's why meditation is so helpful,although it isn't always necessary to sit and om for 20minutes twice a day (Always works for me though!)
Meditation can be fishing,horseriding,running,sitting on the porch in a swingseat,sunbathing,surfing,baking,making a hearty soup,knitting,washing the dishes,playing with kittens,flying kites,walking in nature,and a myriad other activities.You name it,as long as it's enjoyable and has a good outcome,it'll help you relax,destress,and focus on wellbeing.
So what boosts your enthusiasm?
