1. Creativity is the natural order of life. Life is energy; pure creative energy.
2. There is an underlying, in-dwelling creative force, infusing all of life-including ourselves.
3. When we open ourselves to our creativity, we open ourselves to the
creator's creativity within ourselves and our lives.
If we open ourselves to our creativity, we open ourselves to our
creativity.
4. We are, ourselves, creations. And we, in our turn, are meant to continue.
5. Creativity is God's gift to us. Using our creativity is our gift
back to God.
We have a moment of eternity, stewardship requires that we use it
well.
6. The refusal to be creative is self-will and is counter to our true nature.
7. When we open ourselves to exploring our creativity, we open ourselves
to God; good orderly direction.
Good Orderly Direction is a gimmicky achronym. Stupid.
8. As we open our creative channel to the creator, many gentle but powerful
things are to be expected.
As we open our creative channel, synchronicity occurs.
9. It is safe to open ourselves up to greater and greater creativity.
10. Our creative dreams and yearnings come from a divine source. As
we move toward our dreams, we move toward our divinity.
Emersonian transcendalists would buy this. Christian translation:
become Christlike.
