This weekend I am going on a 'healing' retreat at my buddhist 'home' down in Hove, where a lot of letting go, reading and contemplation takes place. Where the mind becomes light, and the love for living beings bubbles up like a soda stream of divinity, the new and improved soda stream mind after an injection of buddha bubbles!!! Bliss.
Recently I have been looking at some artists and sometimes they seem to embody how I feel regarding all this 'stuff', the delightful (said with a Jools Holland Voice) 'Florence and the 'Machine' I adore her abandonment to convention regarding performing her songs. https://youtu.be/5GHXEGz3PJg
Also Bjork who just becomes so weird and obscure with her current album Utopia it's genius and is almost like 'the future' according to Shakespeare and Orson Wells with a flurry of instruments from the 1700's. https://youtu.be/RIGgn1s3AvI
Aaaaaaand If you think creativity is just set aside for humans I am sure you may have seen this beautiful work by a creative puffer fish....https://youtu.be/B91tozyQs9M
And finally......Ken Robinson on Creativity in Education and the importance of it, he is brilliantly funny https://www.ted.com/talks/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_creativity
So I find many outlets and 'joy' in so many different ways, by changing the trappings of my mind, but I have to say I am not a talented artist by any means but I find 'Joy' in the creativity of others and the messages they send.
