Create

I am often amazed at the process of creativity. To take unorganized matter and turn it into something beautiful and unique is extraordinary. "The desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul." When we create something, we emulate or strive to be like God, the ultimate creator. Take a loaf of bread for instance, although we are not creating heaven or earth by it, we can take raw ingredients such as flour, sugar, salt, and yeast that would normally be useless on their own, and combine them in such a way that brings about a completely new and delicious result. If you're thinking to yourself that you're not the creative type, think again. "Creativity does not require a brush, a pen, or the keys of a piano." To create life, to create a loving home, and to create laughter, are all ways we exercise our creativity. By simply creating something that did not exist before, you are making the world a better place.
