Creating is natural, it is how plants grow, how we invent anything, how we decide what to wear in the morning, what to eat all day. Being so natural how do we get so lost or so caught up in not seeing what is around us? The house, the yard, the trees, the lake, the animals in the area, the interesting people and colors that are eyes don't even see. Like yesterdays blog we get caught up in the chatter in our head.
It is like not being able to solve a problem or find something one day, and then as soon as you wake up you know the answer to the problem or you remember right where you put something and why you put it there. Is it because you aren't up with the chatter that getting up and getting ready for the day fills you with.
This is almost like the not seeing things in the moment.
So how could you have room to create, whether it be writing, painting, dancing or learning a script.
I have a challenge for you. Take 15 minutes during the day and make sure there is no TV, no phones, or even radio. What do you hear? see? feel? Does it make you uncomfortable to not have things going on. Walk around your house and look what you have filled your house with. If you still have time walk outside and look at everything like you have never seen it before.
Just take notice if your place is cluttered more that you thought? Do you have a sacred place to create? Tell me how this goes? I'm going to do it.
