Where Does Creativity Come From?

6/10/2014

A thought struck me. That’s just what I mean. It struck me. As if it came out of nowhere to rest in my brain. That thought was, “Where do thoughts come from?” Or ideas? Or visions? Or dreams? I can look at a mass of sugar and fat and chocolate chips and tell you where chocolate chip cookies come from. I can plant some seeds and tell you where a zucchini comes from. But mental creations? They materialize from some immaterial world, sometimes in such vivid and marvelous detail. Are they planted there as a cosmic gift from a source not yet understood? I think so. My best writing and my best painting always seems to come from an idea not planted by myself.

And your best ideas seem to come late at night... night owl. Also, your best chocolate chip cookies come from making them. Come make me some.

Nope. Ideas are planted by a secret team hired by the super rich to manipulate and control the world and everyone in it. Also I want some cookies.

Creative thoughts come to me a lot, but they mostly remain dormant until I express them in some of my paintings. You help me get there, girl, so thanks!
