I’ve spent many hours creating

Doodling, moulding, carving; yes! These are the things that make us creatives.

…carefully curating different shapes, and curves. Creating ebbs and flows where there once were none.

Meticulously, vigorously, hap-hazardous, neatly, thoughtfully.

Creating.

For what are we if we don’t create?

Even the most vile actions come as a result of creation.

We can’t help but do it; it’s in our nature.

Creating chaos; that’s what my mind does when left unattended.

Creating stabilised peace; that’s what my mind does with careful intention.

I’ve always seen creation as a GREAT thing, but more recently, I’m coming to learn that maybe it’s just - a thing.

Not necessarily good.

Not necessarily bad.

Just a function of life.

What have you created recently?

And how aware are you of your subconscious creations?

Who’s really running the show?
