Elizabeth Gilbert on the Creative Process

The author of Eat, Love, Pray talks about the artist and an idea that creativity is actually a separate entity, like the Romans and Greeks believed. This saves the artist from killing himself, depression, and/or making a mess of himself because as long as he shows up to do his part of the work, he cannot fail. It is creativity's fault if the work fails. Anyway, just watch it.

Haha, I like the seaweed part... because anyone who has ever swum in a lake knows exactly what she's talking about! :)
