Create, a word that means so much more than we give it credit for

People say to me a lot, “Oh you are so creative, you’re so lucky…I wish that I was creative too”.  Its a comment that saddens me, because I truly believe that each of us has creativity in us, we just don’t always recognize or appreciate it.  This quote from Dieter F. Uchtdorf is one of my very favorites, because it encompasses what it truly means to be creative.  Not to make something people can see or touch, but to make the world a better place and create beauty that didn’t exist before you.

How do you create?  Consider your life, and the impact you are making on the world around you.  Can you begin to recognize the ways you create, that you might not have noticed or given yourself credit for before?  Can you find more ways to be creative?  To bring happiness and laughter to the world around you?  After all, that’s what we are all about here at Everyday Creative!
