Helping others become even better versions of themselves
As a child it was always ‘don’t do that, it will make a mess’. This creates the habit of not letting go and restricting our creativity.
It’s taken me a lot of my life to realise, the best things come from making a mess and freeing ourselves.
I spent today in my art studio making a mess, some went wrong and ended up even better.
Enjoy making a mess whatever it is it can always be cleaned up and the freedom of letting go allows us to create our best.
I was inspired by a friend’s post talking about conflict and creativity.
Opposites are an interesting perspective and it made me think of a David Bowie quote ‘religion is for people who fear hell, spirituality is for people who have been there’. The opposite to the dark creates the light.
You need to experience the opposite for it to be so, too. There is no light without dark, no happiness without unhappiness, nothing only exists because there is something.
So maybe you need conflict, the darkness of it, to experience the opposite, creativity or light.
When we are creative it is the light from within that we are sharing with the exterior world.
There has to be the Yin and the Yang in order for balance to exist. So there has to be the opposite to the source of creativity.
