When people are talking about art and creativity, it is usually about creating some form of art themselves, as in painting, writing, making music and many others. Or about enjoying one of the art forms, listening to it, looking at it, reading it, wearing it,…

I wonder, is that the only way to define art?

What about being creative with life, with the many obstacles life can throw us, what about being creative with our depression and hopelessnes and feeling of being stuck?
Do you consider it a way of being creative, to finding ways to respond to them, to be able to try something wholeheartedly, then finding that it wasn’t the best way, being completely thrown against the rocks (or hitting rockbottom, hmm i’m not very good with this terminology :P), and then looking again, for an other way.
for example, doing something completely radically opposite to what you have always done in life, being completely with the fear or unknowing, and just trying it.

Or maybe it is not only about challenges, but also with the boredom that might arise from doing the same things on and on, what kind of things you would do to make your life more ‘lively’.
For example, seeing patterns in yourself, and doing things to change them, or to take on the opposite from that pattern, so that you can learn to play around with it, and learn to be more free from it, or so that you can find your balance with it..

Or by finding different way to look at events in your life, to bring more purpose in your life.

Or… whatever else i’m not thinking about right now.

In what ways are you being creative with your life?
