From a rational point of view, creativity does not and cannot exist.
What kind of task is this, anyway?
“Take Nothing. From it create Something.”
What exactly is this Nothing? And how are you supposed to take it? With your hands? With tongs? Most importantly, how do you organize the creation process?
Has anyone ever explained this to you: at college, at home, or at school?
In short, every aspect of the task leaves you stumped.
At worst, it looks like mockery. At best, mysticism.
Fortunately, the Creator has no time to think about any of this.
His soul, Mind, and body are completely absorbed in the Work.
The Creator is inseparable from creation. Like a part from the Whole. Like a bee from honey. Like a gland from sweat.
His focus is on preserving the connection. With what? With whom?
To get the result, you don’t need to know. It is enough to stay open.
It’s simple: there is a Portal. Everything comes to the Creator through it. Inspiration. Curiosity. Ideas. Confidence. Audacity. Strength.
Wise is the Creator whose rational Mind knows how to protect the Portal. From carelessness. Idle curiosity. Self-interest. Ridicule. Pride.
And most importantly, from attempts to understand in advance what reveals itself only later. Personally. Face to face.
But by then, it often no longer matters.
Sincerely yours,
-Alexander
