Creativity is Art.

This chapter brought aspects of today and creativity together in a way that I found to be very interesting. As an individual who has always had a passion for writing, and was always interested in a career in writing, but never had any inspiration, this whole course has given me much input and knowledge on how to achieve the creativity I desire.

I think creativity is something that is always changing; it is always something one must work on, practice makes perfect. Maybe not so much in this aspect, however, the more experience one has will perhaps create better results in the future. I would also have to agree with Mary Jane... the quote that was in the beginning of this chapter, "...Art involves creativity, creativity does not perhaps involve art." When I think of creativity, I think of it as an art because you are developing something, perhaps original, but maybe with small idea from other people. It is a way in which one can express oneself, and I think that in itself is definitely an art. Creativity is always helping one to explore his or her self. One can learn about themselves through creativity; about their strengths and weaknesses, wants and needs, fears and desires, etc.

Creativity is an art. I believe that it is a way in which we all express our emotions, thoughts, and feelings. I think that it is an important part of our lives because without it we would not have music, movies, art, architecture, etc. Creativity is all around us in several different ways, we just have acknowledge it.
