Having a creative outlet, such as drawing or painting or writing poetry is
great value, emotional, practical and spiritual, as well as helping us develop
the right side of our brain, reduces stress, and most importantly, it adds tremendously
the quality, the joy and passion of our lives. However, most of us ignore this
vital and integral to the side of our nature.
Why?
The list goes like this:
I'm just not creative,
I have no talent,
I can not draw a straight line;
I can not write
I do not have the time,
When you have 30 minutes to relax and do not need more pressure,
I was painting (drawing, not photography) in college, but now I am busy with

Also given the message that art is just a trivial pastime or the Real
art is for genius ... which incidentally is often seen as a fruit, neurotics,
hippies and weak. And since we are a society that is based on material success

It is not surprising that art and music programs to reduce drastically,
and is in better schools our children are put under undue stress to compete

So, how do I start?
First, pick something that has always secretly wanted to do, if you had
time and talent and take a beginner's class ... in the local community
center, or high school or college. If you are used to color or shape or drawing
or write, start working again. Anyone can learn to draw, anyone can develop
techniques, and if you're after a little practice and patience will bring

and create your own beautiful projects.
If it is taking time from work or family or "constructive" fulfill the duties

all other areas of your life and fill you with joy and energy.
takes little time and effort .... and it is clear the
negative messages that were once given .... but the rewards are immeasurable.
