THANK YOU NOTES PROMPT

My Creative Joy Loves Visiting Me Now

A tribute to my long-lost creativity I recently reunited with.

My Dear Creative Joy,

You often come as a distant faded whisper from somewhere far away in the vast and boundless Universe. You slowly engulf me and lure me with enchanting promises of amazing creations.

You don’t always choose the best time to do so. I sometimes ignore you and wave you aside with my hand as if brushing through a puffy white cloud. But you’re very stubborn and don’t give up so easily.

You leave me alone for a little while, then suddenly, come back even more determined. In the form of a mental image this time. It’s a game you’re playing, you see, because you never reveal the whole picture. Only snippets of words intertwined with brief flashes of visual imagery.

Being relaxed and content is key. Otherwise, our communication channel gets jammed. You mostly visit me whilst I am meditating, taking a walk in nature, or a warm bath. When I am taking time for myself, disconnected from the incessant worldly noise.

Sometimes you make an appearance into this material world when I am talking to someone. When certain words reverberate differently in my ears, I know you’re there. And thus, an idea is born. You taught me that ideas are driven by a single impulse: to be made manifest. And so, I subtly lean over and pay closer attention.

I do have to apologize to you, my Creative Joy, for suppressing you for almost fifteen years of my life. You used to visit me as a child, but one day, ‘a grown-up’ harshly criticized our stories. Our vividly enchanting stories. My dreams got shattered in a blink. As a highly sensitive child who didn’t know any better, I took that criticism to heart.

And thus, I got upset with my you and pushed you aside. Your presence started dimming as time went by until one day when I just couldn’t feel it at all anymore. I now know you were always there, it’s just that I got so disconnected from my true authentic self I couldn’t hear you anymore.

When I started getting back in touch with myself, I apologized to you and embraced you wholeheartedly. Fortunately, you forgave me without hesitation.

I know that I had lost an essential part of me all those years back and now that we reconnected, I am not going to allow that to happen again. We are now getting acquainted with each other again, slowly rekindling our spark. I truly hope we can become the inseparable best friends we used to be back then. I trust in your higher intelligence to fulfill our destiny.

So, thank you, my dear Creative Joy, for never leaving my side and for always guiding my steps to higher realms of bliss and potential. Thank you for helping me find my way back to you and to my purpose of being a better human being. And thus, to better serve others.

You are an important part of me and I shall never forsake you again.

I promise you that with the utmost sincerity.

Love,

Sorina Raluca.
