Using Creative Power.

It is when you are really living in the present - working, thinking, lost, absorbed in something you care about very much, that you are living spiritually....For I know that the energy of the creative impulse comes from love and all its manifestations - admiration, compassion, glowing respect, gratitude, praise, tenderness, adoration, enthusiasm. And why should we all use our creative power? Because there is nothing that makes people so generous, joyful, lively, bold, and compassionate.

6 Sentences [6S]

Today I came upon a cool writing website called 6 Sentences. Writers submit pieces only 6 sentences in length. What a cool idea. I wanted to try my hand at it - or shall I say my pen - so I sent my first submission. It's challenging and fun. I encourage you to try it as well.

[did you notice that was 6 sentences!]

I heard a noise but couldn't tell where exactly it was coming from at first. I listened hard, harder. Oh, ah, inside of me; that's sometimes the hardest to hear. Create and connect it implored. I'm always tempted to react, but I chose my response instead. Blossoming.
