Creativity is a Personal Thing

We need to remember that we create with each thought or word that is spoken or action taken.  We are creating all the time – every day, every hour, every minute, and every second!  That means that it is up to each one of us to find the ways that work for us to produce what brings us happiness and gives us a sense of power knowing that we have the ability to create whatever it is we want.

There are different methods of how we can create and they are personal for each of us, which makes life so interesting. The unusual thing about creativity to me is that I am most creative when I don’t think – when I let ideas and thoughts pass through me and am clever enough to write them down when I am sitting before my computer or have paper and pen available for writing, which is my passion.

I have learned that my method of doing this is called channeling, something we all have the ability to do when we let ourselves be quiet and still in a space where we have opened ourselves up to receive the messages.  Although this sounds simple, it isn’t always so because of all the “monkey chatter” that exists in our heads that keeps us mainly in a one-sided conversation that is filled with the chatter of negative thoughts.

Where do all the channeled messages come from?  If you believe as I do that we have lived many lifetimes, doesn’t it make sense that we have various memories imprinted upon us that consist of some of our experiences and the lessons learned from those experiences?  And, if everything is energy, doesn’t it also make sense that we carry those memories with us from lifetime to lifetime?

I readily admit that I haven’t been perfect during this lifetime and most assuredly must not have been in all those other lifetimes for if I had been perfect, what would have been the point of my having lived so many lifetimes?  What would I have learned otherwise?  Yet, there has to be a part of me that remembers the best ways of living no matter the form, and that is what I reach for when I mediate or remain still to receive guidance from my higher self – that self that can find humor and enjoyment in living as a human today – that self that reminds me that my journey is my own – that self that knows I am loved by the Universe no matter what, and that self that loves in return.

Knowing that, it is in this space that I am able to create and connect with my guides and loved ones for it is in the energy of love, the highest vibration, where I can create best whatever it is I want if I am open to it.

For those of you who are not comfortable looking at creativity through the resources of channeling, you can simply remain in a space of love, feeling the desire for what you want to create, turning away from earthly thoughts, and losing yourself in your passion.  It is not important how you create, just that you do for when you create anything in a positive way, you are in the highest vibration, the one that connects you to the best part of you.

We all create in our own way and it always seems to be changing as new ideas and thoughts come to us.  Yet, there is something wonderful and consistent to be said about the feeling of having just created something you wanted.  What you have created can be something as simple as trying a new recipe, or something as inspiring as finding the cure for cancer.  No matter what it is and no matter how insignificant or significant, it’s a great feeling, a “high” to have completed it.  That great feeling allows us to continue in the higher vibrations, where laughter is a substantial one, especially if it provides a belly laugh.  Laughter is such a marvelous release of joy without any safeguard for it comes from the soul. Haven’t you noticed that if you feel good, you laugh more?  Is there anything better than a good joke? So, how could I not share this one with you?

A university creative writing class was asked to write essays containing these four elements:  religion, royalty, sex and mystery.

The prize-winning essay read:  “My God,” said the Queen, “I’m pregnant.  I wonder whose it is?”

Keep creating with blessings, laughter, and light.

Drama doesn’t just walk into your life.  Either you create it, invite it or associate with it. – Dr. Jerry Weichman
