It could be, to create is the supreme act of order being brought out of the chaos and randomness of the universe.

This is no easy matter – a gross understatement on my part.  It will everything we can possibly bring to bear as Humans; these words from Ryan Holiday say some of this: ‘Therefore, we can always (and only) greet our obstacles with energy, with persistence, with a coherent and deliberate process, with iteration and resistance, with pragmatism, with strategic vision, with craftiness and savvy, and an eye for opportunity and pivotal moments.’*

These attributes begin to describe the capacity we’re able to grow and develop for  dealing with complexity and, through it all, for becoming more Human.

Arianna Huffington suggests four new metrics for measuring our achievements: these being wisdom, wonder, well-being, and giving.**  What if we were to nuance these even more by suggesting Human expressions and actions such as love and joy and peace and kindness and goodness were both the results and means of Human creativity?
