Sharing Your Creative Spark: Why Your Unique Expression Matters

Enchanted Planet Blog Header

Your Creativity Matters More Than You Think (Seriously, It Does)

Have you ever felt that nudge to create something—anything? Maybe it’s a sudden urge to paint sunflowers on your sneakers. Or write a poem about the existential angst of your dog. Or bake muffins that look like volcanos. That little spark? It matters.

And before you dismiss it with a wave of “yeah, but it’s not that good,” or “who would care anyway?”—take a pause. Breathe. Sit down. Because I’m about to get all metaphysical on you.

Let me put it plainly: your creative expression is not a luxury or a side-hobby. It’s your contribution to the fabric of the New Earth.

Now, I know “New Earth” may sound like the name of a natural food store or a boutique crystal shop, but bear with me.

That world is built, not by grand declarations or viral TikToks, but by tiny, genuine, soul-lit offerings—like yours.

But… What If My Creative Stuff Isn’t Good Enough?

Ah yes, the gremlin choir chimes in. The inner critic who sounds suspiciously like your mother or your 7th grade art teacher: “This isn’t real art.” “You can’t make a living as an artist.” (That’s one my mom repeated fairly often.) “Shouldn’t you be doing something more productive—like alphabetizing your spice drawer?”

I’ve been there. Heck, I still vacation there occasionally. (I hear it’s lovely this time of year in Imposter-Syndrome Valley.)

But here’s the deal: when I first started sharing my own creative work—visionary paintings, songs I wrote, metaphysical writing, and other weird little energy experiments—I had zero clue what I was doing or whether anyone would care. I was just following that spark. One brushstroke, one paragraph, one breath at a time.

And guess what? People started telling me things like, “Your song helped me choose to live when I was feeling suicidal,” or “I saw your painting and finally understood something I couldn’t put into words.” One woman told me that reading my novel, House of Mirrors helped her clear a past-life trauma.

You never know whose day—or even life—your spark will touch. Maybe you only reach one person, but that person could change the world.

Your Doodles Are a Spell

I mean this literally. Whether you doodle spirals in the margins of your planner or crochet funky sweaters for cats, you’re channeling energy. You’re saying, “Hey Universe, I’m here. I’m participating. I’m lighting up my little corner with something that only I can bring.”

That’s the thing. Only you can create what you create, and you can do it better than anyone who has ever lived!

That’s magic. No wand required. (Though if you have one, by all means wave it with flair.)

We’re so conditioned to believe that our gifts only matter if they earn money or Instagram likes or land us a feature in Enlightened Creatives Monthly. But I’m telling you: the world is aching for authentic, vulnerable, heart-made things. You never know what ripple effect your creation will have.

Let Your Light Be Seen (Even If It Wobbles)

I know it can be scary. Sharing something personal always is. But here’s the great cosmic joke: your vulnerability is what makes your work powerful. It’s the wonky edges and slightly off-key notes that remind people, “Oh wow, I’m not alone in this human weirdness.”

So if you’re looking for permission to let your creativity out of the closet (along with that stack of old journals and half-finished collages), this is it. Let it out. Let it shine. Let it wobble. You don’t need a five-year plan or a massive audience. Just start where you are, with what you have, and trust that it matters.

If you’re craving a little extra fairy dust on your journey, I’ve tucked plenty of it into my Enchanted Planet Blog. It’s a place where you can find encouragement, metaphysical musings, and the occasional reminder that your art is sacred—even if it involves googly eyes and pipe cleaners.

And if you’d like to explore my visionary art, metaphysical tools, or Celtic magic, WulfWorks.com is where I share the weird and wonderful stuff I create, including books like House of Mirrors, which was basically channeled through a combination of magic and stick-to-itiveness over several decades.

Not just to me (though I’ll be grinning like a pixie with chocolate), but to someone else who might stumble on that book and realize it’s exactly what they need.

Your Magic Is Essential!

In case you haven’t heard this lately: the world is better because you’re in it. Your laughter, your kindness, your wild ideas at 2 a.m.—they ripple outward in ways you may never fully see or understand. But they matter.

So thank you. Thank you for being here. For reading this. For keeping the spark alive, even on the days when it feels more like a flickering candle than a blazing sun. I honor you. And I’m cheering you on.

Now go make something. Anything. Paint a potato. Write a love letter to the moon. Whistle a song you just made up on the spot.

Because your spark is divine. And when you share it, the whole world glows a little brighter.
