In recent times I've encountered some troubled, abusive people, and it all got me thinking.
Why are so many people so aaaaangry. Once I started to ... how do you say, parametise 'anger' I started noticing it in a lot of people.
That got me thinking ... what's really going on?
Well, in regards to the title, "creativity knows no bounds, but ego does" ... creativity is fluid, inclusive. Ego works to exclude and define itself (as being separate, apart).
Ego is necessary to life. But it's the art of letting go the ego, to engage inclusivity and creativity that is the key to 'happiness', openness, letting go and receiving.
In past eras "success" in life was mostly about command and control, competition and hierarchies.
Those dynamics to life still exist -- without some structure creativity is lost, or used by others who have the systems to turn creativity into new products, services and solutions.
Creativity it seems to me is the missing agent in our troubled world. We're failing to be creative ... to find our own way, to know our own power to be ... ourselves, and to be at peace with ourselves.
