"Creativity is a central source of meaning in our lives . . . most of the things that are interesting, important, and human are the results of creativity . . . when we are involved in it, we feel that we are living more fully than during the rest of life."
Hungarian Author, Psychology Professor
1934 -
One of the things that makes us unique as human beings is our creativity. We have a desire to create something beyond ourselves — to leave something of ourselves behind. I have often thought that if I could not write, could not express myself creatively, that I would be very depressed and may even die. I am happiest when I am in the midst of creating something — whether that be a story, a poem or a speech. When I am creating the ideas flow through me and I struggle to capture them all. Some slip through my fingers like water. Others are planted in the soil of my mind and take root. When are you happiest?
