Worth 20 minutes...
Got time to kill? Here's a great clip from Ken Robinson from the Ted Conference on creativity and education...
I loved this clip and will share it with all. When we had our children, Heidi and I didn't want our children in the arts. We both knew that creativity was not rewarded or regarded. In addition the rejection and competition can be brutal to a soul. But it seems artists beget artists and that the world is in desperate need of creative thinkers. So we dance, play music, design and think. Bravo for posting this...
