Self Expresssion
We have all been in a crowded room with a question on the tip of our tongue, but to ashamed to ask. We think it’s stupid, or worse, everyone is going to laugh or pile on the dirty looks. The fear of expressing ourselves., bites us all doesn’t it?
The same holds true on our creative journey. We write and re-write, question our motives, and always fail to jump onto the “good enough train” fearing the same reaction as all of those people in the room. We, yes WE, hold ourselves back, not anyone else.
“Live life as though nobody is watching, and express yourself as though everyone is listening.”
Nelson Mandela
Creativity is the ultimate self expression. This is our mark on the world, it is meant to be shared. We need not file it away because of a fear that people have nothing better to do then wait for your work to come out. They are not going to collectively start laughing while piling on all of those dirty looks.
“Our self expression is meant to be a manifestation of the silence of our hearts.”
Matthew Fox
Art and the creative path you choose to put it on is as unique to you as the freedom that comes with choosing how you see the world. Your mind, and all of your senses, is waiting for you to give the go ahead to share your self expression, inspiring others to do the same.
“The only person you are destined to become, is the person you decide to be.”
