If we are not careful, we can easily spend so much of our time and our lives waiting for permission to create something that gives us joy and delights others. This is a reminder to myself to make something that delights and heals, first for myself. And to trust that what I create for myself will naturally progress to something that is shared with others. When the inspiration strikes, just do it, even in the smallest of ways. If I want to write, then write in a stream-of-consciousness style in my journal and see what comes of it. If I want to paint, doodle on the page. If I want to scream, scream inside the car while driving to somewhere familiar or new. Just do it and don’t worry about permission, validation, approval, green lights. Creativity isn’t human anyway - it belongs to the divine. Just do it and see what happens. What happens is almost always something good.
