LOB: creatist

LOB considers himself a "creatist".
LOB believes in CREATIVITY as a devine path of wisdom.
In the begining, the gods created all life as we know it.. to believe in creativity is to belive in that which the gods believed in. It is the closest path to godliness we as humans can tread upon.
aArtists are usually attempting to portray or convey some sort of "impression" or idea. Although at times LOB finds excitment in the role of being an aArtist, he attempts more so to be a creatist, to make things up. The spontaneous essence of life is the spark of life itself.
Creativity is the notion that one can be god like.. one can MAKE things.. one only needs to try...
