Creativity? “I am 99% creativity and 1% logic”

I started ballet at the age of four, for thirteen years I passionately wanted to become a ballerina and choreographer, after a knee injury my life turned in different direction though. Took me way off the path but found other arts – painting, interior design, writing, ballroom dance, acting, organic works, and more…What I have always told people was, “I am 99% creativity and 1% logic” When younger I had great difficulty “fitting in” to this world. I took jobs I didn’t want just to survive and “Society” kept telling me I was wrong and could never make a living in the arts, my mistake was I listened. It hurt deep within for years until I discovered my inner strength to live my life from my heart and no one elses. I have struggled financially but I honor my self and am creating not only art but a lifestyle I love with freedom, spirituality, trusting the Universe and an abundance of love in my heart expressing out and others gifting me with theirs. The arts in all their diverse forms is the drive from within that not only keeps me alive, but I cannot not do it!!!
