Creativity

Well Im back after a much needed rest! I hope you all had a good Labor day weekend.
We had quite a busy summer and I needed some R&R.
People dont realize that in order to be creative, you must have a clear mind and soothed soul.
Creativity is not a unlimited source that just will continue to flow for as long as you need it.

Ive met actor Jeff Bridges, who is also a photographer. I had handed my camera to my husband to have him take the photo and the camera wouldnt fire. So he took the camera and put our heads together and Held it out in front of us. It still wouldnt take, because the room was too dark and the auto focus wouldnt work! (thats what I get for taking my cheap camera instead of a good one!) I did get his autograph and got some other photos of him later.

We laughed when the auto-focus wouldnt work! It was sort of embarassing, but funny too.

He says that creativity comes from being still. From observing nature and beauty. That you can't work all the time and expect to maintain your creativity. Very wise words indeed!
I truly believe that in order to be creative, you have to feed your soul. You have to be still.
This is why my backyard is a sanctuary.A place where birds love to come, and water features and why I love to travel. To be alive and to experience inner peace and joy. Then I can be at my best for my clients and my family.
