| Prompt: “But, if you have nothing at all to create, then perhaps you create yourself.” C.G. Jung What does this quote mean to you and do you agree with Jung that we create ourselves? -------- Empty hands, still bloom— shaping self from silent stone, I become the art And, I had to come up with a haiku for this. Maybe because April--the poetry month--is waning out. As to the quote, it got me thinking. Creation isn't limited to what we see and do outside of us or our external achievements. It can be deeply personal. Therefore, we are never truly out of options to create. This goes for me, too. When there is no canvas to paint on, I become the canvas. When there are no tools, my choices, my work discipline, dreams, and resilience become my tools. I feel I am not out of options because I believe in the human spirit, in everyone and not just myself. In other words, all of us can turn inward, sculpt our thoughts and memories, etch our hopes upon our silences, and bend our lives to fit the circumstances. Then, even a broken light may have the power to illuminate someone else's darkness. After all, when all is said and done, we are all living anthems.   |
