Creativity is a central source of meaning in our
lives for several reasons. Here I want to mention only the two main ones.
First, most of the things that are interesting, important, and human are the
results of creativity…The second reason creativity is so fascinating is that
when we are involved in it, we feel that we are living more fully than during
the rest of life…Perhaps only sex, sports, music, and religious ecstasy—even
when these experiences remain fleeting and leave no trace—provide as profound a
sense of being part of an entity greater than ourselves. (pp. 1 & 2)
