If you want to be creative you will have to create the right environment to allow your imagination freedom to roam. Imagination is the essence of creativity.
Dreaming means opening
to experience; expanding your sense of self to include possibilities you may
never have imagined. When you dream you are embarking on an inner adventure,
seeking out the new and surprising.
This exploration isn’t
without risk – who knows what you will discover? Are you willing to follow
where your imagination leads? Only in following a dream can you reveal the
depths of your own self-deception and be reborn through disillusionment into
wisdom and growth.
Truth is meaningless
without dreams.
Creativity is
impossible without structure, so your dreams must be grounded and given form if
they are to live. Unfortunately (or fortunately) this changes them. A story
written down is never quite as numinous or perfect as the story glowing in your
overwrought brain.
But the fact remains:
if you refuse to allow your dreams to be challenged through the process of
incarnation into form, you will never create. Your dreams die with you leaving
nothing but a slight smell and a stubborn stain.
So let your mind off
the leash to tumble through unimaginable vistas, and when it returns bearing
gifts, don’t forget to write it down.
What fuels your dreams?
