The circle selects questions and then engages in discussions from the list. This season you will take a close look at your past and present relationships and discuss their importance and impact on your creative journeys. This will open your awareness to the positive and sometimes-unhealthy impact relationships can have on the complexity of your creative path. Use the topics below to guide your discussion or suggest your own topics for discussion. Use the following questions to help guide your discussion: Which relationships do you need to focus on to maintain your creative sense of well-being? How would you describe your ideal relationship with your significant other as it relates to your creative journey? Have you ever used your creativity to help heal a relationship wound? Can you describe this time in your life? Can you describe your parents' relationship and how it affected their individual creative journeys? How has this affected your relationships? Do you feel that you nurture the creative spirit in those you care about? Please share some example or stories? Are you more apt to express yourself artistically or creatively when a close relationship has been wounded? Describe any transformations of significant relationships (endings or beginnings) that have had a life changing effect on your creative path. Can you describe or share a significant time in your in life when your bond with another person sparked or stomped your creative spirit? Can you identify relationship conflicts that inhibit your creativity? What are you presently doing to avoid such conflicts? Are you open for suggestions?
