words in hues

3 min read
As everyone is tired to know about, it's being really though to find a job. But anything can't stop us, right? We have to make our own happiness and I work on mine every second of my life.

For those who follow me, you know how much I love to share experiences, to learn different things and to be inspired. Interviews seems to be a good place to be when we want to know a little more about someone that are of the utmost importance for us, but that are distant in some way.

I already have some experience with it, through my innerview series on designing dreams. And now, I'll take the next step: bringing the concept of interview a little farther, a little deeper. Milan Kundera, in one of his books (The Art of the Novel), said something like "an interview is a dialogue". I couldn't agree more. Interviews tell a story and stories live in the space of imagination. No limits, just freedom.

Come to meet my new child, words in hues:

words in hues by BlackLuna

Words in hues wants to interview common people with uncommon stories. Whom transpire emotion, life and energy. People that didn't resign to a space, a mindsetting, a status or situation. People who fought, who changed, that went against all expectations and won.

Words in hues ambitions everyone to follow their dreams, to live their passions and to grab their happiness. That they stop to sit down on their couch waiting an opportunitty to come out, or to walk without a direction expecting a surprising "hello", somewhere in the way.

Words in hues knows that anyone, right now, can write their objectives in the moon and create a spaceship to go there and conquer them. Sometimes we lack will, motivation, confidence, the know-how. Sometimes the excuses, or what other people say or even the distance of our goals, puzzle us, blur our vision. We're here to help you on that. But remember that you already have the tools, just try to use them.

So... Do you inspire or respire? Do you follow or are followed? Do you dream or do you conquer?

If you have a story to tell, please share it with us (wordsinhues@gmail.com). We also accept new ideas and donations. Thank you for joining us!

For more information, just send me a note or leave a comment!

Thank you so much for reading me, go ahead and share this with your friends. :blowkiss:

A lot has been written about the subject but I want to take part on the discussion as well. I'm here to talk about creativity.

Yesterday I received a one of a kind feedback. A simple question. Some months ago I started a new project: Rules of Being Creative. It's not finished yet, but you can take a look at it at my gallery.

Rules of Being Creative is a study of my own methods in delivering a message. When I'm finished, I think it will be worthy a semantic study as well (maybe I'll write a book about it, one more to the pile of "how to be creative").

Rule #1 is to break your own rules. But someone asked me: Why make rules if you're going to break them? It seems a suitable question, right? But then, why live if you're going to die?

Maybe rules aren't the right word. Or maybe we should change our way of thinking. Creativity has no rules, and yet could have an infinity of steps to follow.

What is creativity? I'll not search for a Wikipedia definition or look into a dictionary. Would they really answer me? I prefer to look inside. Creativity is the association of ideas. Mere thought. And where do ideas come from? It can be from movies, books, experiences. But maybe, just maybe, the most powerful are the ones we decompose, the ones we break and reconstruct. Lego is a perfect metaphor in what regards to the brain. It not only picks fragmented pieces (redundant or maybe not) of reality but it also combines them to create new worlds.

We evolve. We're not the same as we were yesterday and certainly our life tomorrow will be a bit different than it is today. And rules will follow. Or else slavery and death penalty would still exist, homosexuals will never marry and women will never be considered entirely equal to men.

We need to change the question. Why follow rules if we don't challenge them?

This Friday :iconscfrankles: (SCFrankles) is featured in my blog with one more amazing interview. It was really inspiring to chat with her and know a little more about the person behind the humouristic fictions she always presents us.

Have some fun reading it at designing-dreams.blogspot.pt/2…!

Have a wonderful day,

Nícia Cruz :heart:

P. S. Inner-view is a little project of mine where I interview unique people, with passion for their work (being it amateur or professional), strong ideas and a different vision of the world. If you would like to see someone featured please send me a note and I'll consider it. :)
