You got to love kids!

I went to a kids birthday party and I have to laugh at the kids. They open presents and no matter what it is, as long as it isnt underwear or socks, they are happy with it. cheap or not best thing out there and the latest fashion or the dollar sales rate its all the same. They take the toy out of the box look happy they have a toy and 15mins later they have the rapping paper and the boxes they toys came in playing whatever game they can make up in there heads!!!
I love it! You have to love the creativity of being a child. To have the imagination to make a box turn into so wonderful time traveling ship or make birthday wrapping paper into a long flowing dress and a small box the tearia!  You can almost transport yourself into your own childhood and remember playing with boxes and paper and mud puddles...
Why do we lose that creativity? What happens as we grow up that crushes that Spirit of  wonder of creative power? How do we go from creators to the created?
I have a theory. I think that spirit is crushed out because we have to conform to everyone else in school and if we dont then we learn quick that the others pick on you and the teachers get mad and bad things happen so we conform then at home we learn that our family has assigned us a role and they expect us to live in it. then we have the church that tells us God loves you but you have to do this and dont do that and dont do this and we have more people to please plus a God that has a list of rules that no human can follow but here we are trying to prove to these people we can do it all! Then we hit puberty and here comes the dateing game oh joy now not only do we have to please people we have to be the best one so we can get the right person to pick us to date so we can make everyone happy! then we get married and we have to please all these people plus a spouse then kids! OMG you have to take care of kids and keep them happy too! oh and somewhere in there you have to get a job and make your boss happy. you cant be happy anymore you have to make every freaken one else happy! bye bye creativity hello hell!
So today I am reclaiming my Creativity and I am shutting out the non important people in my life both past and present because I have nothing to prove to you anymore! I am going to learn how to be me and not who everyone thinks i should be. that is my spiritual goal and that is my truth!!
Peace all
