If we want a revolution in culture, we liberate ourselves from an outlook that blinds us from our already abounding creative resources.
Change and Why We Might Fear It
The drive towards perfection has permeated our relationship to the experience of life. Have we forgotten, or ever really known, that all of this is only true upon mutual agreement? As the creator you are free to introduce any element to the story, and all of your creations are subject to judgement. Yet fear of judgement is no reason to halt or slow the process—it is the nature of this stage of manifestation’s perspective. We fear change because of its unknown qualities. Because in our familiarity with today we face a loss of navigation, if we change the status quo for tomorrow. As a society we have grown comfortable with a way of knowing life, and the kind of changes we need to make will require us to let most of that go and simply be with the uncertainty… the imperfection of learning to walk again.

![2012 Collage—This New Year I’ve taken a visual approach to explore what I would like my 2012 to look like. Today I made a collage! I love making lists, but while leafing through magazines in search of images that sparked my imagination… (I will repeat that)… SPARKED MY IMAGINATION!
I’ve been working with the inter-disciplinary artist, and Creative Stimulator Ula Einstein, exploring the ins and outs of our individual relationship to creativity. Said differently, creating a collage was a lot of fun, just like it was when I was a kid. When most of us are kids, we don’t know creative “rules”, we just go for it!
