Creative mind

How creative do you consider yourself as?

I oftentimes have an uncountable fear

that I am not creative enough to be an art instructor or

an artist based on my ideas

and my way of teaching. 

Ideas popping up . . .

Circumstances that I did not expect . . . 

Situations where I need to share my opinions and express my ideas...

In these various moments of life,

Facing them creatively

Expressing my thoughts creatively

Leading the conversation creatively

How creatively do I bring these moments together in a concerted way . . .

I question how many people,

including myself,

let these moments pass by, just waiting and wasting.

Having gone to school in Korea in the 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s, I was trained to learn English and Computer under the established policy to educate students for globalization.

For globalization . . .

“Dream Trees” generation for the 21C. . .

“Dream Trees” generation struggled against each other to get into the best universities and to live a more comfortable life. . .  As they passed through Y2K, the middle-aged “Dream Trees” generation has planted and grown a new “Dream Trees” generation.

Where and how are the “Dream Trees” now, who were once in the limelight?  

And what are they doing now?

How much fruit has our “Let’s Prepare For A New Era” policy borne?

All the commotion we made over Y2K has been buried in time,

and

we are continuing to welcome a new year.

 

We can easily let moments pass by and be forgotten,

but

every moment can be creatively utilized to make memorable moments

that we can hold on to.

My wish for everyone is

that

we would not be bound by the arbitrary number

that

counts the days of our lives,

but

usher in 2012 with a resolution to be creative.

:: Happy 2012 ::
