creativity

I woke up at 1 am on a Thursday morning. I was unable to sleep with this unsilenceable notion that God had something for me. So, I rolled over, turned on the light & picked up my laptop. This is what I found. It is a speech given by Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love. As I laid in bed & watched this video, tears streamed down my face as a resonate “YES!” was heard in my heart. I am not alone in this need to create, & the task of meeting this need is not left to me alone. I often have a difficult time expressing my thoughts with words, (this is why I am a visual artists), but on this night God gave me Liz. She has said in 20 minutes what my heart has been trying to tell me, but has struggled to find the words.
