I started thinking about creativity after reading our first chapter in Oldach's book. Do you ever wonder where creativity comes from? Or, whether you were born with it? And maybe it seems like some are "more creative" than others-> why are people more left-brain thinkers than right, and vice versa?
A couple of weeks ago, my other professor said something that resonated in my mind. He mentioned that creativity comes from our inner child. All we have to do is listen to our imaginative childish thoughts! It's inspiring watching kids play because they have this care-free attitude. This attitude that lets them speak their minds and invent their own worlds. An attitude that lets them dance and sing in public, even if they aren't that great.
Unfortunately, many adults suppress their playful thoughts because they are supposed to "act" a certain way. Of course, we can't always behave like kids, but I believe we don't act like children enough. In order to be creative we have to hold on to our inner child, and "dance like no one is watching."
