I loved someone’s comment that I read today: “We’ve lost our whimsy.”
And I just want to say, "Get it back, y’all!"
Climb the tree. Paint the picture. Dance in the kitchen. Tell the dumb joke (you know I will). Dream again. Wonder again. Laugh again.
And let me say that you don’t “become” creative. You already are creative. You were made by a Creator, after all. Now, maybe life and everything that comes with it buried that part of you. Maybe someone convinced you there isn't time for beauty, curiosity, or play.
But there is, and we need it.
Creativity isn’t just for artists, musicians, or writers. Creativity is how we love, solve problems, tell stories, cook meals, encourage people, build community, preach sermons, raise kids, and imagine a better world.
Somewhere along the way, too many of us traded wonder for cynicism and whimsy for productivity.
Get your whimsy back. Go frolic somewhere.
Stay blessed...john
