How are you creative?

I can remember as a child being very creative, my imagination was constantly running at 100%. As I grew older and I focused more on being a responsible adult I lost a lot of my creativity, the art teacher I had in middle school was very supportive, but my parents were not. They told me to work, that was it just earn money anyway possible and you’ll be fine. Terrible advice, that’s all I ever did throughout my life was earn money and not a lot of money just make money without passion or excitement. Now I’m on the verge of retirement most of the money I earned is gone, but at this point I feel as creative as ever, I write, draw, paint in an effort to hone skills I thought were lost. I strive to create some good in a bad society, to smile when all I want to do is scream, to hug someone when all I want to do is slap them. Being creative definitely has its challenges, but totally worth it.
