Mother of Invention

"Necessity is the mother of invention" could be the theme of my creativity. Put simply, I find I am quite good at creating "something out of nothing." Surround me with abundant resources and endless options, adn I will be useless- stuck in the dark world of decision making. However, give me a few seemingly meaningless items adn leave me alone for half an hour, adn I will present my inventive creation.

Honestly, I don't know many others who are wired this way. In some ways, my "make do" mentality perhaps limits me. However, I really believe this way of thinking somewhat defines my relaxed and generalizing personality. Strange as it may seem, this "talent" (if you will) is what keeps me inspired and motivated to invest in new creative outlets.

Inspired by this revelation and soon to follow:
