Oh I love creativity as an act of resistance and rebellion! Also I think I struggle with making the time to be creative with no outcome/point to the exercise. And yet perhaps the point is the act in itself xx
I totally know what you mean! I often struggle if there doesn't seem to be a "point" - I feel like I'm wasting time if I'm not working on something for an external reason. But yes, the act itself is definitely the point. And I need to take that lesson to heart too!
This is an AWESOME message! Thank you Allegra for writing and sharing it.
The power of our creativity as humans is something Iβve come to learn over the last few months and those truths echo and resonate so much with what youβve said here.
The moment I realized I could also create in my own way, It CATAPULTED me out of my depression, and it ignited purpose within me, to create, share, and help others recognize they can do this too!
People need to recognize the LIE being told to them that βcreativity is a scarce, unknowable thing and is not available to allβ. Nothing could be further from the truth. We all have our own ways to create and itβs something that is ESSENTIAL to our well being.
I think of creativity as a life force rather than separate from it. So I apply creativity to all facets of my life.π
YESSS Rachel!! ππΌππΌππΌ

Creativity saves me again and again.
I love this article! So true! If I couldnβt create with art, color, words, play, my life would suck!
