It takes two to Tango

I just recently watched a video where author of the book Eat, Pray, Love Elizabeth Gilbert gives a speech on creativity. Talking about the fears we all feel to live up to some imagined idea of what success means. She talks about creativity being a form of divinity. This strikes me. As someone who is always trying to find God, could it be every time I am touched with inspiration God is by my side. But what when I am not touched with creativity? Creativity, Art, can be like an addiction. I remember a healer once told me I was "addicted" to the idea of acting. What did she mean, at the time, I thought she was crazy but now as I look back --I think Well, Maybe I am. Addicted to that feeling of Oneness with God. Once you feel that pulsing through your veins, no drug can ever match that. It is a high beyond all highs. Its elevation. And, when I am without that, I slam back into earth fully aware I am just the same ole girl sitting on the couch---In this speech Elizabeth Gray. Says YES, that is your job, to get out there to act, to live, to be and if you are so lucky to be touched to feel Divine-then great. But don't beat up the person you are. She said it is like showing up for work, you have to show up before you can be blessed. So get up, audition, dance, paint, write, laugh & enjoy and hope that the creative genius shows up--because remember it takes 2 to tango.
