Thank you to Melanie Hogg for sharing this fabulous quote. Here is an inspiring thought for the day...
Brené Brown, "The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You're Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are"
"Let me sum up what I’ve learned about creativity from the world of wholehearted living and loving: “I’m not very creative” doesn’t work. There’s no such thing as creative people and non-creative people. There are only people who use their creativity and people who don’t. Unused creativity doesn’t just disappear. It lives within us until it’s expressed, neglected to death, or suffocated by resentment and fear. The only unique contribution that we will ever make in this world will be born of our creativity. If we want to make meaning, we need to make art. Cook, write, draw, doodle, paint, scrapbook, take pictures, collage, knit, rebuild an engine, sculpt, dance, decorate, act, sing—it doesn’t matter. As long as we’re creating, we’re cultivating meaning."
