Everybody who has ever held a conversation is a creative. Because do we ever really know beforehand the words that are going to come from our lips.

Not really. We just get passed a baton and then run with it in whichever direction our brain fancies. One thing leads to another, and before you know it you’ve had a conversation. A creative exchange of words. We do it all the time.

And that’s the kind of thing that, in some people’s hands, ends up in novels. Or film scripts. Or songs. And the strange thing is that the people who do that stuff sometimes get told “I wish I could do what you do”.

But they can. We all can.

So don’t be shy. The world needs more intentional creativity, and more people who are at least trying to make and build something new.

We’ve got more than enough of the folk who prefer to tear things down.
