Okay, I'm reading an e-newsletter that says creative people are dishonest. I hope you don't mind if I tell you I had a knee-jerk reaction. Just for the record, honesty is not a creative issue. It's a moral issue. Dishonesty falls in all walks of life. If creativity and innovation was an issue of honesty than some of the poorest people should be wealthy. Petty crime runs amok and can be found in abundance. However for the world of those who are innovators looking to create a product that not only is a help to others but helps them live product lives- let's pray that the moral issue of integrity and honesty is viewed as it is. Yes, there are good storytellers. However, that is a matter of character and not talent.
I promise you it's a character issue. Those who put their hands to work to create should not be put in a one-size shoe category. No not all. What becomes of us who know not right from wrong, the issue lies within the soul.
