My Rambles

I have never thought myself to be creative unless escaping the wrath of parents after scoring low marks counts. As a kid, I would find new and absurd ways to hide my marks just so that I could avoid the much required scolding. Now I wonder maybe it would have been better to just study and get those marks.

I grew up in a Maths and Science household, which means my parents would only question about scores in these subjects and that too when they would remember. Creativity as an aspect I don’t remember either been encouraged or discouraged.

Infact I have been contemplating asking for refund from my school lately because it was only focused on teaching me Maths, science etc, and I don’t see myself launching rockets.

What I see myself doing is delivering speeches, giving presentations, handling stress wondering what is the purpose of my life and trying to understand myself better and accepting myself. But I don’t remember even a single class addressing any of these subjects in my twelve years of schooling or even four years of graduation.

Coming back to the subject, if it counts I was also creative in avoiding work at school how could I have gotten away without doing my homework and not getting caught by teachers and I wasn’t bad at it. Maybe it was because I started young!

When I see myself today toiling under street lamp, well not really, but what I mean is working hard, I wonder maybe, if I would have been so diligent back in School, I probably would be actually launching rocket now.

To conclude, I don’t think I am creative at all, my voice is so melodious that even in a choir of 100 people, I would be asked to mute myself. Similarly, I have been given with not just two left feet but also two left hands and I am so out of beat that even in a dark club, the inebriated individuals flinch at my moves. When I try to draw human, I end up drawing ghosts and the reverse literally never happens.

I don’t think I have a creative hair in my body, unfortunately. So what is your creative superpower?
