Are we educated OUT of creativity?

Creativity organically arises out of a compost pile nourished from clippings of encouragement, shavings of holistic processes and pieces of perception. Our pile has rotted into stagnation. We need to turn the leaves, dinner remains and coffee grinds to boost our energy to listen, to learn and to open to all of these. Let's start with awareness and move toward developing what author Daniel Pink dubs "R-Directed thinking!"

Nice image Gwen! I wonder how many of you will go back to Pink and look up some of the websites to discover your right brain! I actually ordered the book on drawing and plan on taking the rest of the summer to "play" with it. I cannot draw and am hoping that with some exercise of the right side I can get a bit better! The other test I found fascinating was the empathy tests you can go to on line.
Thanks for responding Gwen! I hope you had a good trip home singing the whole way I am sure!!
