Creativity


                                      Creativity

Creativity is something that comes from within. It can’t be taught, can’t be learnt, can’t be borrowed and certainly can’t be copied. It can only be improved by constant efforts and constant practice. Creativity lies within everybody, it’s just that few see it and work on it, few see it but rather ignore it and few rather not see it at all. Creativity is like water, it takes the shape of the vessel it is kept and here the vessel is us. It depends on us how we mold it and what shape do we let it take. Creativity can be over whelming, can be an illusion sometimes also. Sometimes, we tend to do so many things or are able to do so many creative things that we end up thinking that we belong to an entirely different league, an “elite” one. We feel like we are golden and anything we put a hand on turns into gold, although gold here is metamorphic but still you get the idea right?
The closest that a man can come to perfection is not to perfect in every damn thing he likes to do but to instead identify “the” thing in which he is best and then nurture it but what happens most of the times is that we get tied up, confused and so overwhelmed that we are not able to decide the best of the lot and in this way that man ends up losing every bit of creativity within him not permanently but enough to tire him and compel him to quit that “shadow” of his that he once desired or dreamt of.
A man is a tough soul but even the toughest of soul can crack when that soul is not able to witness the light at the end of the tunnel, he gets scared and realizes that it’s time to quit chasing dreams and start living in reality. This is where the difference is, few opt out but few still keep moving forward just to get a peek at success at the end of the dark tunnel and they do.
Creativity is a different thing and reality is another different thing but to transfer the creativity into a reality is the biggest challenge or is the toughest exam that a man has to pass in order to live the dream. Few chalk out because they don’t feel like they have got it in them to do it while few are let down by their dear and near ones and that eventually crushes the will.
We’re all a victim of it. Sometimes, we feel like we can do so many things but yet we’re not able to find that one right thing. We’re living on the brink and have completely learnt to open our mind to any of it but if we don’t figure out the best of all the creativity within us, we might as well be lost in this crowd as I mentioned earlier and that’s what sometimes we’re afraid of the most and all that will be left is despair and remorse. We always wanna do so much more and in a unique way but without a guide even the smartest of people can get lost in a desert…….

  1. Well written, creativity does matter a lot.
    Less of creativity and more of realizing that it is there, actually. Anyway, good job. :-)
