Leo Donovan: Let it Be (Different)

"If from all the studies scholars have done on creativity, we could draw a composite portrait of a creative person it would be a caricature not a profile. We found them early developing a keen sensitivity to experience. Like all of us their first encounters with the world are made up of original discoveries and invention. But long into life, they retain the capacity for childlike wonder. With every experience they reinvent themselves. Travel becomes especially a way for the child in them to roam disguised as adults. What's important to them is what they think of themselves, so they're unconventional, often discontented, not always virtuous, and they have a hard time explaining themselves. They work hard, and day and night are the same to them: no more time bound are they, than their imagination is earth bound. They take risks and are either lucky or bold enough to seize chance when it appears. But almost always, at some crucial moment in their lives, someone else reaches out and says: "Here...take my hand."
