No, I don't agree. When you see my work and hers - day and night! I think it matters if you've been doing things since you were young and have that talent; not everyone is creative but has other strengths. I just haven't been encouraged when young, and then tried but don't have it in me; I also don't have the time to waste now in doing something that's hard for me. I'd rather do something to make good use of the few years I have left (I'm mid 70s)! Hence the books I'm writing that I feel proud of, and my children will enjoy in the future, I hope.
Creativity is very subjective. What one thinks is awful, someone else will love.
I believe totally, that we are all creative. Whether that's in the garden, or in the kitchen, or making scrapbooks. We all have talents. And doesn't that make for a wonderful world.
'Whatever you do, do it with love in your heart'
My creativity has gone awol.
My desire to create anything, has diminished.
My mojo disappeared.
I'm lost, in a lost world.
Save me......
