TotD: Live, Love, Laugh... Create!

It is "creativity" or "creation" that remains, beyond our lifetimes.

Think of all of the marvelous things that have remained though their creators have passed. In the short range, one can list multitudes of people and their accomplishments, but as we go further and further back, what remains is the creation and not the legacy of its creator.

Take for example some of the oldest written songs or oldest hand-crafted pottery. While we are limited to what we know and what we can deduce about the artist who framed such masterpieces, we can still appreciate, today, the art, skill, and creativity that went into crafting these things.

Though a steady form of written recording seems to exist today, what if the world lost everything but a few scraps of the past- a few relics or stories?

Today, I want to be creative- I want to create something literal, something etherial, something heard, something tasted, something that ... tells the story of me.

And maybe hundreds of years from now...
(When we've forgotten things like: who invented the cotton gin... it was Eli Whitney)
Someone will enjoy my creation, and without even knowing me, will experience life, my way.

Create.
