Creativity and inspiration
I think all of us have the capability to be "creative." its not always about the fancy oxford dictionary words. A writer can convey more thoughts in a few sentences of simple english as compared to those who sound like the thesarus is their bedtime reading material. A friend today got me thinking about my creativity and what i aspire to do with it. Fact is am a closet writer with very little faith in my work all because people who inspire me are just too darn good. I don't know whether there is any sense in that but its the whole truth. Am not those writers who can derive inspiration from a sunset, a broken heart, a bad experience... No, believe it or not i derive my inspiration from people. People inspire me far greater than any emotion i have. And not just people but their emotions as well. To write well, (well enough, anyway) i place myself in the shoes of another and use their emotions to write. I try to picture what someone could be feeling and the words just flow from there. I don't know what that says about my skills as a writer... So,what are my aspirations? To just keep loving my work and if someone else loves it too..well that is a bigger bonus. God bless.
