Mini Post: Creativity Conquers
What point is there to creativity, to the imagination, if we are not allowed to break rules without censure? The wind and rain and snow and sun follow the rules of science, and yet how abominably dull they would be without the occasional surprise, the rule-breaking moments that send us into shock or delight.
A sudden thunderstorm in the middle of a hot summer day, or a blizzard in an area that rarely gets snow. Even something as simple as an unexpected rainbow can turn an otherwise ordinary day into one of extraordinary pleasure.
So, too, must the imagination be set free to experiment, to challenge, to cast aside what we are told must be done. Words, and the stories they create, have boundaries that creativity continues to conquer.
