Create.
\nWe all do it.\u00a0 In some way, shape, or form.<\/p>\n

I like to create through photography, drawing, and writing.\u00a0 Some people do it through baking or cooking.\u00a0 Still others sew, or knit, paint, or sculpt.\u00a0\u00a0 But creativity comes in many different sizes.\u00a0 Music is a huge example.<\/p>\n

A lot of people are creative in business, or in helping the community.\u00a0 What about people who fix things, like cars, and plumbing and electric?\u00a0 I’ve seen them figure out creative solutions to the tasks at hand.<\/p>\n

For sure… you don’t have to wear a little black beret cocked to one side of your head to be creative.<\/p>\n

I love to sit and generate ideas, and bring them into actualization on paper.\u00a0 Albeit, most of the time, it is digital paper, but none-the-less.\u00a0 It is just where my brain is happiest.<\/p>\n

Science, mathematics, medicine, engineering, and the likes……\u00a0 all sprout from the creative.\u00a0 Heavy on logic, but equally heavy on innovation.<\/p>\n

Albert Einstein once said \u201cI am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yesssindeeeeedy.<\/p>\n

As I mentioned, it is where my mind feels gratified and content.\u00a0 I imagine that we all have different places where our brains like to be.\u00a0 But sometimes, other things get in the way.\u00a0 Worry.\u00a0 Stress. Busy-ness.<\/p>\n

I guess we can’t stay in our “happy” zones 100% of the time.\u00a0 But wouldn’t it be nice.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Yet I think we should probably visit as often as possible.\u00a0 It is most likely good for our well being.<\/p>\n

And when our well being is good… we can be good for others.<\/p>\n

Sort of like when you are on an airplane, and the door blows off in mid-flight…. and all the little masks drop down out of the ceiling.\u00a0 Yep.\u00a0\u00a0 You see, you aren’t good to anyone else, unless you first grab your own mask and start sucking oxygen.<\/p>\n

So… today.\u00a0 Suck your oxygen.\u00a0 It will make your brain happy.<\/p>\n

And we’ll all live happily ever after.\u00a0 That is…. IF the plane lands.<\/p>\n

Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact.\u00a0 —\u00a0 William James<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
