I agree with the parent but I also think Ratatouille stated it best, “Not everyone can become a great artist; but a great artist can come from anywhere” Give me some ingredients and I can make something edible. But no one would confuse me with a chef. https://www.ranker.com/list/best-ratatouille-quotes/movie-and-tv-quotes https://www.ranker.com/list/best-ratatouille-quotes/movie-an...

You don't have to be a chef to be a creator. Creators create rubbish, only through constant failure do sparks of greatness arrive. A creator can be anyone, greatness comes from anywhere. To a home cook it starts by wondering what will happen if I add this, or change that. What if the recipe can be ignored. What if I add wine, or take away the tomato. Every time I'm prepared to make it worse, I allow it to be better. The great musicians throw away 10 songs for every one they keep. We see their success, but perhaps in seeing their failure we would be better encouraged. Being a creator has nothing to do with your circumstance. Opportunities to create are all around us in every mundane thing we do. Incidentally I am not saying creators are better than anyone else. I'm not saying that they are somehow more-worthy. Yes they are rare, but rare doesn't mean special. I'm not sure we are all born to create, that every child is a natural creator, but if we are all latent creators then all I can do is encourage everyone to try. Perhaps though we are not all born to create. Maybe the willingness to be mocked, to fail, to suffer, to lose, is in but a few. Perhaps those few create because they have to, in spite of the obstacles. In Profession George asks why. Why not tell everyone this is a possibility. Why not make creating an honorable job? “And those who don’t? The ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine that don’t? We can’t have all those people considering themselves failures. They aim at the professions and one way or another they all make it. Everyone can place after his or her name: Registered something-or-other. In one fashion or another every individual has his or her place in society and this is necessary.” " It won’t do to say to a man, ‘You can create. Do so.’ It is much safer to wait for a man to say, ‘I can create, and I will do so whether you wish it or not."
