Creative people
Keep their great ideas in sight
Daily massaging
Creative people
Aren’t afraid to take great risks
They grow through failures
It can be painful
And expensive when we fail
Pick up the pieces
Examine the parts
Carefully rearrange them
Then find new uses
Look at those messes
As valuable mistakes
Creative messes!
I’m off to visit my friend, Bern, in the hospital. He has a creative mess in his hospital room… feathers and wires, hooks and string, paints and brushes, easels and canvases all over the place. But, instead of sitting or lying in his bed feeling sorry for himself because an infection has rendered his legs too weak to walk steadily these days, he is using his creativity to bring joy to life while his body heals.
You and I can do that, too.
We can bring joy to life
by using our
ingenuity
creatively!
What mess do you have
that is waiting for resurgent rearranging
and new uses today?
Go do it!

Thanks, Laina. He is feeling better today. They moved him to a bigger room where he has more space to spread out his projects!! ❤

He made some beautiful flies. I pictured a table full of them today.

My desk is in the hallway. It is a mess but I know where everything is. 🙂

That’s better than hiding everything to make it all look neat – and then not knowing where anything is!
