Good sites for creative expression

I posted this on 'Outlet Mall for Creative Expression'..a group started by Lulu54.  Check it out as we know there are more people on this MS site that are creative and we'd love to hear from you.  

Good sites for creative expression

Even if what you are going through health-wise isn’t considered a ‘disability’...as far  as I can see, anything that limits what we once did, changes our life so dramatically that we need tons of encouragement to accept the changes and at the same time keep connected to our core, creative selves.  I find, among other things, that sites like these help me to stay focused on what I can do and not what is now missing from my life.  Hope they help you too.  Hugs, Charley.

"We recognize the right of each person to experience the full extent of their capabilities and limitations, at the inner core of their humanity."
"We believe that the story of the independent living movement and the stories of artists with disabilities need to be told."
"We go through the world with identities that others attach to us, while the arts allow us to define ourselves."

Oh, gosh, I'm sorry!  I misunderstood.  I thought the material had to be something that had to include our maladies - what ever they be. Mon faux pas!

Guitar_grrl,
MS free zone is exactly the point of the group  - a place to remember there are other things that fill our lives than doctor appts, and non-stop reading and studying about this disease! I hope you'll check it out.

It sounds great - I'll have to check out some of the posts.  I'm a little reluctant because I'm trying to keep my music in the MS Free Zone.  Of course this is subject to change...

Cheers,

All,
Medhelp started a new function that allows people with special interests to create groups.  

We would welcome any and all of you to stop by and check out the creative thoughts and perhaps add your own.
