“Is This Creativity… or Just Survival?”

Daily writing prompt
How are you creative?

I don’t know if I’m “creative” the way people mean it.

I draw. I write. I enjoy it. Sometimes it feels like I’m just moving lines around and making noise with words.

But it’s all I’ve got that feels honest.

When I don’t do it, I feel heavier. When I do it, even messy, I feel a little more real—like my brain has somewhere to put the pressure.

So does it mean something? Maybe not today. Maybe it’s just practice. Maybe it’s just survival.

Either way, I’m still doing it.

Question: What’s one small creative thing you do that keeps you human?
