“The best thing that one artist can do for another is to serve as an example and an inspiration.”

~Steven Pressfield, multiple times bestselling author, b.9/1943

Just the other day several members of the iCreateDaily Facebook group shared how “art is therapy” for them and “reduces anxiety”.

Creativity generates passion, compassion, empathy, beauty, inspiration and energy. Creativity opens the heart, focuses the mind and renews the spirit. To create is to meditate. Creating is the meditation in motion of the inner dance between spirit and matter... spirit imbuing matter.

Some have said that they feeling guilty creating... like it's selfish to take time to. It isn't. It is a service to you and to others.

When you create and share, you inspire others to as well. And that is a wonderful thing. In keeping with yesterday’s Chef Movies list, consider food art and creative cooking… how making things and seeing things made, or just thinking about them, can make us want to create it or consume it.

We will get to that place with creativity, where to see others creating and their creations, is a fragrance that wafts into our soul compelling us to rise into the creative realm and immerse in our own unique flavor of creativity. 

To create is to elevate ourselves and others. 

To inspire others to create is the privilege of all creators.

May you create today.
