Talkin' 'Bout Creativity

When most people think of creativity, they usually think of crazy and wild things. They think of off the wall colors or off the wall topics. I think creativity can be shown in many different ways. Sure, there are the ways that we have all heard before such as thinking outside the box. But I think that creativity comes in many different forms.

Many "sane" people look at creative people in life and just laugh. Well, I think that creativity is something much more than what some sees at first glance. I'm sure that some of the most creative people in the world have gone unnoticed because they simply never expressed themselves in a creative way because they would be thought of as strange.

I would consider myself someone who doesn't need much in an ad to appreciate and enjoy it. I can find some of the smallest and most simple things to be the best part of a campaign. In my opinion, these are the most creative things in the world to me. Some things that are so obvious and right in front of you, but only a certain type of creative person can point them out to you.

When trying to find a good image to add to this post, I went to Google images and typed in creativity. A bunch of light bulbs came up as search results. I don't know when the universal symbol for creativity became light bulbs, but I think that it's outdated and boring. However there was one interesting image that I chose to use in this post that I thought was good. This ends my rant on creativity... I don't think I have ever used the form of the word creative so much in my life.
