Everyone has different spirituality, which cannot be influenced by others’ spirituality and environment around her or him. There are so many ways people can express their spirituality, art is one of them.It is hard to get spirituality but also it is hard to change it.
Does spirituality differ from religion?
Yes, I think spirituality is different from religion. Even though, both of them are related to personal value or something like non-physical value. We still can easily tell them by many ways. Religion is what you believe in someone else and one you believe in can give you help and support you. However, spirituality is what you believe in yourself. I think spirituality is higher level than religion, because people can have a specific religion, but they may do not know their spirituality very well.

Creativity is a process to recognize or generate ideas that maybe useful in solving problems or communicating with others. Creativity is transient in nature and is constantly evolving.

What is the source of creativity?
I think the source of creativity can be from intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. For the intrinsic motivation, I think personal experience plays a major role, which included what we have thought about, met with, saw and observed. We can observe novel ideas by appreciating it from the life experience given us. For the extrinsic motivation, it comes from the external world that we live in and the influence from the people or environment surround us. For instance, the religion belief around us may have a deep influence on our mind. The surrounding traditional belief may become the motivation of our creativity and make us create novel thoughts about our surroundings, which can be called the process of creativity.
