10 Commandments of Creative Women

The following appears on Moondance which I found via Return to the Garden.

Creativity is best nurtured in a focused atmosphere.  Recognizing the distractions which life can provide, we offer these tenets to provide guidance and support to all.

• You will always remember: You are a creative woman.
• You will honor your creativity by nurturing it.
• You will honor your sister’s creativity by nurturing it also.
• You will allow yourself to take creative risks.
• You will use your creativity to express and increase the beauty of the world.
• You will use your creativity to express truth.
• You will use your creativity to see more beauty.
• You will allow yourself and your art to be a work in progress.
• You will allow your creativity to be the “true voice” you hear when others scoff.
• You will accept and love yourself during times of feeling fallow, trusting this quiet time is necessary to precede new birth or creation.
