As is the case with all good things in life - love, good manners, language, cooking - personal creativity is required only rarely.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
To have the sense of creative activity is the great happiness and the great proof of being alive.
Certain things in life are more important than the usual crap that everyone strives for.
It is very important to generate a good attitude, a good heart, as much as possible. From this, happiness in both the short term and the long term for both yourself and others will come.
To me, that aspect of life that most touches the everyday and celebrations is food.
Few people have ever seriously wished to be exclusively rational. The good life which most desire is a life warmed by passions and touched with that ceremonial grace which is impossible without some affectionate loyalty to traditional form and ceremonies.
Some of the happiest people I know have none of the things the world insists are necessary for satisfaction and joy.
There are three ingredients in the good life: learning, earning and yearning.
For me, cooking is an extension of love.
Creativity is a habit, and the best creativity is the result of good work habits.
The essential conditions of everything you do must be choice, love, passion.
