When we create, we are in dialogue with our deepest selves. We're learning who we are. In that process, we get confronted with parts of ourselves that have not been given voice. We discover things about ourselves that may need some tending to. Some healing.
When we do that work - either through creative expression, or therapy, or both - that leads to growth.
And that growth is what the world needs. It needs more people who are aware, and awake. Open, and empathetic. Resilient, and hopeful.
“We are beings of vast potential put on this earth to magnify that which is beautiful and true.”
– Nick Cave
