“Creative people often feel highs of joy and lows of sorrow that others may never experience, and perhaps could not even handle if they did. Little wonder many outside the creative world mistake (or dismiss) eccentric responses of the spirit as weakness or mental illness. But in the end, these dismissive souls will never know what it is to be moved by tears by the beauty of rose or brought to joy by sunlight filtering through the leaves of spring or autumn. The creative walk in glades invisible to those outside their realms.” PeopleIfsKnowsWorldFeelsMayLittlesIdeasSoulEndsJoySpiritWalksMistakeWonderCreativityCreativeTearsSorrowSpringLowsWeaknessInnovationMovedRoseResponseIllnessInvisibleHandleMental IllnessRealmsAutumnSunlightCreative PeopleEccentric Author:Duncan Long

“While we only look at Nature it is fair to say that Autumn is the end of the year; but it is still more true that Autumn is the beginning of the year.... Autumn is the time when in fact the leaves bud. Leaves wither because winter begins; but they also wither because spring is already beginning, because new buds are being made, as tiny as percussion caps out of which the spring will crack.... It is only an optical illusion that my flowers die in autumn; for in reality they are born.” YearsLooksMadeStillsEndsFactsRealityDiesBornFlowerSpringIllusionFairsWinterTinyAutumnCracksCapsBudPercussionOptical Illusions Author:Karel Capek
