Renunciation, an expression of creativity Part 2

As young children, we're all creative. We draw sing, build, and dream. Life is Easy. All we need are food or fuel, space and time to be and express ourselves. Yet somewhere along the way, we get lost and make life a little harder for ourselves because we think with our head and eyes rather than with our he-ART.

...
Have we forgotten the meaning of freedom, closing our eyes and sleeping in the middle of the afternoon with no feeling of guilt?
I do believe that creative confidence develops itself through renunciation of the high perception we have of ourselves in the eyes of others.

Ambivalent feelings about staying or leaving

Do you want to stay in one place and be rooted to ground yourself in a specific environment? Do you want to be leaving and go to different places to elevate yourself? Can you do both at the same time? Yes you can do both, do not ever think that where you are is static, the place is constantly changing and it is within the details that you can find new meaning for oneself and if this is not enough, plan time in and go to come back different..
