What motivates you to be creative?

Recently, listening to James Blunt whileI blog or post motivates me. Sometimes when I need a kick I lisen and am amazed with his ability to express pain and disappointment at such a young age. He is amazing, such insight. Our we born with it or did someone relly hurt this kid to such a depth. I envy those with a voice that they can express themselves so beautifully. No pun intended.

Usually a good sampling of media will bring about creativity. A good drawing, a good painting, nice music, anything like that. But it has to be something to catch my eye or interest. Other times a random thought will do too (inspiration). In general it could be something less, perhaps just wanting to be or do something great. Its quite possible we are all born with specific talents. Some may arise immediately, others need a stimulus from the environment to bring it forth (the original definition of "education"). Then there maybe talents that are ingrained through discipline and hardwork without an innate origin.
