“Consider this – when you ask a child to draw you a picture, or tell you a story, they never refuse because they ‘aren’t creative.’ We just learn as we get older whether we’re allowed to call ourselves the anymore because we’re trained only to invest time in what we are ‘good at.’ And its a tragedy – when we can’t create purely for the joy it brings us. Don’t be afraid to play, Fionn. It’s good for the soul.”

The Dazzling Truth
So true! Children act out of pure instinct most of the time because they haven’t been domesticated by society’s standards that imply they aren’t good enough. I think we could all take some creative advice from merely watching how children interact with the world.
