Inspiration.

It captivates my interest that such a thing as a creative writing class exists. How do you teach one to be creative? How do you force a mind to construct something original? Creativity is not to be contained, nor can it be taught. It  flows naturally, passing through mind, body and soul, and deposits into what we are fixated on. The mind is never to be confined. There is no limit, no rules or guidelines on how to be creative, it simply just "is." Your imagination ebbs and flows just as the ocean, it is unruly, incorrigible and unpredictable. Never will it be captured, no matter what it will still leak through. Waves of inspiration create monuments, this is how our world was built, this is what surrounds us.
