creativity
"Creativity is like the breaking waves at the ocean's surf. The surfer waits for the right wave and when it materializes, the surfer latches on, riding its crest until the destination. When the big wave of creativity comes in with a rush of ideas, yoga can give you the skill to surf. Grab these yoga-inspired ideas like a surfer's gear and get ready for your next big creative wave."
"Creativity is like a fat, needy cat. You must nurture it, care for it, and feed it to keep it thriving and healthy."
"Is it any surprise that the modern working world, largely based on repetitive, rote tasks, has cultivated this notion of "un-creative" types? Maybe, peopls say, creativity is like The Muses, an other-worldy energy that only long-haired folk can access, "blessed by the Gods. "
"The paradox of creativity is that structure creates freedom. I am a naturally creative spirit who has built my business with extreme orderliness and attention to detail. The strength of this structure gives me greater confidence and freedom to create."

METAMIA is a free database of analogy and metaphor. Anyone can contribute or search. The subject matter can be anything. Science is popular, but poetry is encouraged. The goal is to integrate our fluid muses with the stark literalism of a relational database. Metamia is like a girdle for your muses, a cognitive girdle.
