When I made the decision to dive into the world of writing and express my thoughts through a blog, I'm pretty sure it caught everyone by surprise. Those who truly know me might recall how my younger self never showed much interest in writing. To be perfectly honest, those school years filled with essay deadlines felt more like a form of cruel and unusual punishment rather than something enjoyable.
While writing may be a relatively new venture for me, my creativity has always been a driving force in my life. I've always found so much joy in the art of creating something, which led me to pursue a career in cosmetology.
As I reflect on my 16-year journey of creating hair, I can't help but feel a newfound spark of inspiration for what lies beneath the surface. Beyond the layers of beautiful hair I've styled, I find myself drawn to the fascinating complexity of the human mind.
According to Google, the mind is described as the core of a person's ability to perceive the world, think, and experience emotions - essentially the hub of consciousness and cognition. On the other hand, Wikipedia looks at the mind as the powerhouse that encompasses a wide array of mental activities like thinking, feeling, perceiving, imagining, remembering, and willing.
After reading those definitions and the teachings of various philosophers and spiritual influencers throughout history, it has become clear to me that creativity is not exclusive to a select few – it resides within each and every one of us. Creativity is a universal gift waiting to be explored. Each of us holds a beautiful mind within us, paired hopefully with a stylish haircut from a skilled hairdresser.
The way we see the world, along with every experience we encounter, whether they're uplifting or challenging, contributes to expanding our minds beyond their original boundaries. In the fast-paced world we live in today, it can be easy to forget the power and creativity that lies within each of us. We all possess the ability to create, write, and share something meaningful and important. Imagine a world where everyone recognized their unique value and creative potential, how different things would be.
It's time to remember we are all created to be creative and possess a beautiful mind. Each one of us is born with the ability to think imaginatively and uniquely. In a world that thrives on diversity and individuality, it seems only natural for creativity to be a shared gift among us.
