I’ve never been the perfect girl doing everything by the book. I’ve been that girl’s best friend, knowing that defining perfect can limit you.

I’ve never liked to do things without purpose. And that got noticed. Sometimes, during my childhood, my teacher would have a classroom moment mentioning how up in the blue I was.
‍“Are you daydreaming again ”.
True that. I loved to spend some time following the movement of the clouds thinking about different topics.
‍
Then one time, when we had a task to do a fairy tale, my teacher shocked me.
‍ ‍“Gretas fairy tale is nothing I’ve ever seen, it’s extraordinary.”

Little did I, or she, know that the blue had so much to give. That the space made things fly independently and become something of their own.

I think that frames the key of being creative. Dare to zoom out and look from different perspectives. Make thoughts become independent, and find something new. For me, being a creative is not about recreate, but create.
