Creativity

An article :

Why does man have creativity?
Why can man think of many things in his mind, and choose, and then bring forth something that other people can taste, smell, feel, hear and see?
Because man was created in the image of a Creator.
Man was created that he might create.
It is not a waste of man’s time to be creative.
It is not a waste to pursue artistic or scientific pursuits in creativity, because this is what man was made to be able to do.
He was made in the image of a Creator, and given the capacity to create— on a finite level, of course, needing to use materials already created— but he is still the creature of a Creator.
