The World Needs Artists More Than Ever

I had another episode planned for Creative Space this week, but with everything happening in the world right now, it didn’t feel right.

This week, instead of listening to the podcast, I invite you to immerse yourself in your creative pursuits. Whether writing, painting, or playing an instrument, I encourage you to channel your energy into creating something beautiful that reflects your unique perspective. At a time when we all need healing, your art could soothe not just your soul, but also touch those around you, reminding us of our shared humanity.

We are part of the Creative Space community, a group of people who value the benefits of creativity and its role in our collective healing. Take this as an invitation to express yourself freely, to explore your feelings, and to find solace in your art. It's not just about producing a masterpiece, but about the process, the catharsis, and the connection. So, let's grow and explore together, cherishing each new day and extracting the beauty it holds. Tune in next week for our regular programming. Until then, let your artistry light up your heart and the world.

Hello everyone, and thanks for tuning in to this week's episode of Creative Space, a podcast where we explore, learn and grow in creativity together. My name is Jennifer Loog and, wow, it's been a week, hasn't it? There's so much happening in the world right now, and the weight of it all is palpable, so much so that many of us don't even know what to say. I had another podcast episode planned for this week, but it doesn't feel right, not right now.

I think what I need, what you need, what we all need, is a little time, time to process, time to breathe, time to decompress. So, in the time you would have spent listening to the podcast this week, pick up a pen and start writing. Or pick up a paintbrush and start painting, or pick up a guitar and start playing. Whatever it is that you do that makes you feel like there's nothing else you should be doing. Do that. The world needs artists more than ever. The world needs your art more than ever To feel, to heal, to be reminded of what being human really means, how connected we all are and that our similarities far, far outweigh our differences. Sending love and light to you all, I hope you have a beautiful week and that you cherish each new day for the gift that it is. My name is Jennifer Loog and you're listening to Creative Space. Until next time.
