The connection between the mind and the heart is the most effective way of describing my own creativity. The invisible line that connects both mind and heart; I ponder the fact, when you are sad (an emotion felt by some of the most creative people) it becomes the principal of creativity. The feeling of sad is not always bad in my own matter; to a creative mind sadness in deed is the fuel. I go to darkness and back when writing a passage, a note, a journal or simply a phrase. The likes of nature trigger a switch in a deep mind; I am a deep mind. My spiritualness keeps my soul aware and healthy, but my frustrations rope me in the many wrong directions.

My love for all sorts of creatures in the world inspire me; but with the same this takes me into deep sadness. I feel my invisible creativity being tied up with chains; this alone frustrates me and intrigues a part of my mind to go insane. But my love is so strong that it brings me back to sanity and won't allow me to stay in darkness. I have done harm to my own creative outlets because I get mad and sad when I can't create; when I can't express my deep thoughts and feelings

I see a homeless person and this alone brings me to my knees and tears of helplessness. I ask, is this person insane or sad, hungry and lost? I see a homeless dog roaming the streets and it rips my heart out. I ask, who left this dog out like trash, is he hungry and thirsty? Why then do I torment myself with the lingering image of other unfortunate creatures? Why do I allow myself such infliction? These images become footprints in my soul, which at a later time generates sadness. And to the many who may wonder, why the torment, instead help and reach out to the helpless creatures. My answer is simple; fear.

And this is how I prove to myself that my heart is the life line to my mind. Since having use of reason, like a curse, is the inability to find my perfect creative outlet for my own sake. My soul, however has replenished with the two greatest of my creative passions; singing from the heart and writings from my mind.

According to all the articles I have read, everyone has their own feelings in understanding the meaning of creativity. As for me, creativity is deeper than just understanding the meaning of it. The creativity that I posses comes deep within my heart, my soul and my inquisitive deep mind. I'm a deep person, which alone I can't explain with the simple usage of words and perhaps verbatim to the simple human mind. To the regards of this, I perhaps can explain and express my own creativity through the spoken word and the expression of my heart through a beautiful song.
