Guest guest Posted January 20, 2002 Report Share Posted January 20, 2002 I'm a musician. What I am hoping out of doing this work is to give myself permission to be spontaneous and playful again, which I stopped doing in many ways when I was about 5 or 6. I have so many creative ideas, but I have trouble getting them out because of this.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2002 Report Share Posted January 21, 2002 > It's amazing to hear how many people on this list are doing creative things. I'm not so much into the " artsy " side of creative, but definitely into the " craftsy " side. I knit, crochet, macrame, sew, do fine needlework (embroidery, counted crossstitch, etc.) make jewelry, quilt, do ceramics, leatherwork, and lots of other stuff. When I was growing up, my crafts projects were a real source of enjoyment for me (I wasn't allowed to go out much or do things with friends) and a real good source of positive self-worth. It was also a great way to hide - I could start a macrame project on a Friday after school, and work on it in my room all weekend pretty much non-stop and my family didn't bother me much. It really helped to be able to tune things out now and then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
