           “If you couldn’t see to sew, what would you do?”

“Well, if I couldn’t see, I guess I’d take up pottery.”

           “And if you couldn’t use your hands?”

“I would play piano with my toes.”

           “But what if you couldn’t hear, what then?”

“If I couldn’t hear, or see, or use my hands then I would build a thousand sand castles with my feet.”

           “What if you couldn’t use your feet?”

“Then I would roll my body in paint and fly across an empty canvas.”

           “How would you know the colors?”

“I wouldn’t. I would know the textures.”

           “But what if you couldn't use any of that? What if you were trapped inside; just a mind?”

“If I could only use my mind I would write the most beautiful stories for the angels to read.”

           “Why? Why would you do all of that?”

“Because after Michelangelo finished the Sistine Chapel he picked up his paintbrush and started another painting.”

In the bible it says that God made man in his image. Some people take this quite literally and think that we look like God. Some people think it means that God gave us authority, or dominion. I think that the creator made us to create.

I have to completely agree with this. Artists are a bit like smaller gods in their own right, aren't they? After all, just as God created this world, we create our own worlds through our art.

I've always felt that too. The idea that if we were created in God's image. it was His intent that we carry on with His creative process. To me, there's just no other way to interpret that which makes any sense.

It not only makes sense it also is just a really beautiful thing to think on. It feels right in a way.
