Dear Janice,
I believe that everyone has a creative ability and those that say
they have none, just haven't found their medium/genre/mode of
expression yet.
As a child I did everything I do now -- and more,truth be told.
In between then and now there were things I dropped/stopped/left. The
only things I've done continuously was write and sing. I stopped
dancing, instrument playing, and visual artmaking for years. When my
mother died in 1996, my grief left me dumbstruck and I started
working with hot glass and making paper. So I believe that at any time
something may arrive to open that door to some new creative possibility.
Joy in the making,
Akua (who is mourning the death of Michael Jackson)
I was just thinking the last few days of all of the responses from
TM'ers that are artistic. There are quite a few of you. You seem
to have a varied
interest in the arts and are still doing your thing. Coming from
one who has absolutely no artistic ability, I really respect
what you all do. I have always appreciated the arts (all forms),
just was only able to appreciate it from afar. Thanks for
what you donate to pretty up the world! Janice
