shifting your creativity
I have a new revelation now about why people struggle to let things,people or places go.
I became a huge creative designing websites during quarantine. The creative side of me for website designing just appeared out of nowhere, obviously I was graced supernaturally for it.
However one day I signed into my Google workspace and everything was gone 😲😑 and there was nothing that I could do about it.
somehow I began to struggle creating again. At first I assumed that it was me, that I was torn by the housing issues and the difficult work environment I experienced. little did I know 🤣. It was warfare. I was being violated and surrounded by chaos, literally surrounded by chaos. I would say that it was an unruly storm. At the workplace it didn't matter how much I performed it was getting worse. my physical and mental well being was disintegrating. No matter how many people came out to my home the main issue wasn't getting fixed. I had never, ever, experienced so much uproar in my life. I usually had peace somewhere. However this is when I understood that I had peace on the inside. Peace on the inside is exactly how I weathered the storm. The peace wasn't mine, I didn't create peace but it was provided to me by the mercy of God. Did you know that the violent takes it by force? A shift needed to take place. Storms shift things, quickly, suddenly, unexpectedly, how you decide to weather the storm determines how and where you come out. What a beautiful wreck, how blessed I am to be standing on a solid rock after an abusive storm. When there is a delay in action a storm can uproot what's in the way and reveal what's been hidden. can you see it now?#fyp
From personal experience, I can relate deeply to the struggle of losing creative momentum amidst chaos. When I faced unexpected setbacks, such as losing important work or dealing with a difficult environment, the initial impact was paralyzing. However, I found that the key to navigating through those tough times was not to resist the storm but to find peace internally. This inner calm became a foundation that allowed me to rebuild creativity and purpose from the ground up. During quarantine, many found new creative outlets, but unexpected challenges tested those new passions. Losing digital work or grappling with life’s uncontrollable circumstances can feel like a complete shutdown of creativity. Yet, this disruption often signals the need for a mindset shift—a permission to let go of control, release what no longer serves you, and open up to new possibilities. I learned that creativity is not just about continuous output; it’s about adaptation. The storms of life, whether internal or external, can uproot old ideas and reveal new perspectives. By embracing these changes instead of fearing them, I discovered that my creative energy evolved into something more profound and aligned with my deeper values. Most importantly, maintaining peace within—even when everything outside feels chaotic—is essential. This peace is not self-generated but arises from acceptance and sometimes spiritual grounding, offering strength to face uncertainty. For anyone struggling to shift their creativity amid adversity, the journey involves patience, self-compassion, and openness to transformation. Remember, storms don’t last forever, and what gets revealed in their wake can lead to renewed creation and growth.
