The creative is the place where no-one else has ever been. You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover is yourself."

What sparks your creativity?
This from Calvin Trillin - author and journalist - on Big Think More here: http://bigthink.com/ideas/4477 There are a whole heap more on Big Think - just search for creativity.
For me ... creativity is about filling a void. Sometimes it is there at your fingertips, sometimes you have to give yourself permission to make/find the void. Make the space in your mind and your life, the vacuum that nature inherently abhors and it will be filled. having the tools at hand to realise and channel the creativity is important. Ukulele, journal, pencils, paints whatever it is that gives your creativity voice.
