I have a harder time with this one. Creativity is a difficult concept for me to put to words. They used to believe that if a writer wrote something awesome, he didn't get to take the credit for it because it was his muse (I think there was another word... I'll have to search) and if what he wrote was not so good, he also didn't get the blame... blame it on his invisible friend. Well, this may be a little 'far out' but when you paint or draw or sing or write... don't you ever feel as if you've brushed up against this 'thing'? When I toked... felt it much more strongly. And you know.... singing.... I would sing even if there was never anyone else in the world to hear, no device, noone to share it with. It's like it's sharing the self with God I don't know... I think inspiration and creativity are deeper than behavioral patterns, intentions, rewards, etc. It seems that way to me.
