creativity is so many different things.

it is the way we think, what we do, how we bring up our children, or actually having them in the first place, the relationships we have with others.

it is art and science, it is the special and unique way in which we see the world around us, and also the way in which we express ourselves.

it is what we are and how we live each day.

and what we cook and eat. and the way we learn to adjust our cooking and eating to our changing needs.

it is how we solve problems, or sometimes how we get ourselves into having problems. it is how we make mistakes and how we learn, or don't learn from them.
it is how we dance, even we can only do it with our fingers, sometimes.

it is what we wear and the way we put the different pieces of our clothing and jewlery together.

it is also the courage to go against the flow, to be different sometimes, because this is what you feel is right for you.

it is finding the way to have fun and relax.

it is being able to find the "open door" as in the words of Alexander Graham Bell
“When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.”

and it is also the ability to use what others have created before you, or with you as part of your creation.

“Great discoveries and improvements invariably involve the cooperation of many minds. I may be given credit for having blazed the trail, but when I look at the subsequent developments I feel the credit is due to others rather than to myself.”
Alexander Graham Bell


and of course it is what you draw and paint, or sculpture (if you can) and what you write
