I wanted him real badly. I offered myself to him. I proposed to him and he said "yes" !
Good news ! Creativity agreed to be my "humsafar".
Creativity and me have the: “pakde rehna , Chodna nahin “ relation . Unfortunately, the dramatic essence of this line is comprehendible to a select few who are ardent fans of Bollywood masala. Though I am always confused between imagination and creativity, I believe that Imagination is like the most brilliant creation of the brain. I am a staunch believer in this because I use my brain solely for imagining. I was exulted when I realized that Mr. Einstein’s soul (who happens to be my inspiration , so much so that I sported the same hair style when I was in the 3rd year of my college :P) totally agrees with me when it says : “ imagination is more important than knowledge” . I do not even understand the last word of the saying , can somebody please explain!
My ability to create keeps me alive. I never get bored, thanks to my creativity. The same has resulted in me being thrown out of class and in more frequency – my friends. From everyday life, I learn a lot of lessons about creativity:
1) Movies: They taught me importance of “extravagance” in any imagination. If you are really imagining something – whether it be a picnic, party or a romantic scene – it better be in Switzerland. Though extras are a matter of choice. You can have a few pretty / handsome ones there just for fun and let others be in the backdrop somewhere. Next time you dream of a work place – Let it be in Hawaai – with you wearing some flowery clothes, drinking your favorite drink from a coconut and perhaps getting full speed internet so that you can facebook. Think of getting paid to do all this!! Ahhh .. Imagination is a super power!! You use it, misuse it or abuse it – The choice is yours !
2) Lectures: This is when my creativity levels peak. I start doodling in the book and end up making something really – let us say – artistic. My reasoning behind doodling – It helps me actually concentrate more on the lecture. For those who really are wondering whether I’m giving an explanation for “getting distracted”, I have only one thing to say: “You are gravely mistaken folks!” Doodling actually keeps my head in the class rather than taking it to exotic locations like the arctic pole. I can tell you how “wild” imagination can go. Think of having frozen panipuri at the arctic – wearing those thick woolen clothes, along with a few penguins and polar bears standing in line – waiting for their turn.
3) Work place: Imagination / creativity will help you keep your cool. For people who want more clarity on what I am talking about can watch Scrubs. If you are angry, you can just blow off anyone’s head just by a click of Imagination. This will not only make you smile but also obviate the tedious wait till you finish counting the first 10 numbers backwards, just to clench your fist and punch your rival.
Hope you derived some vicarious pleasure out of the small treat I have offered to you.
In the end I would like to say only one thing :
Keep Imagining! Keep Creating coz creativity knows no bounds! And not to forget – keep Smiling
