The last post made me wonder…

can you learn to be creative?

Yes? How?

No? Why?

I feel creativity is like a natural spring water… it must come out naturally… you can not force the water to spring out… or can you?

It feels too depressing to say you cannot learn to be creative… because it just is too sad if that is true…

I am remembering those Japanese kids who I used to teach English in Japan. They were 3-5 years old kindergarten students… and they were SOOOOOO amazingly CREATIVE!! every single one of them.

So didn’t everyone start life as a super creative being?? What happened to those super UNcreative people??

Uncreative people must have been creative to start and learnt to be uncreative at one point in their lives… maybe because they learnt to listen to others and stopped listening to oneself…? mmm maybe… ?

If that is how to make uncreative people, then if one learn to stop listening to others and start to listen to oneself… can one be creative again?? mmmm maybe…?

… let’s close eyes… and feel who we are… and start listening to ourselves… to be creative again!!

VOILA! YES!! we can learn to be creative!!

and again, really really the world needs more creativity… to be happier, to be more harmonious,… simply to be better!!
