Creative Inspiration - Elizabeth Gilbert's TED Talk

I've watched this TED talk by Elizabeth Gilbert four times and teared up at the end each time. It's so rare in our society to come across folks as present as she is. I think that's what moves me. And she's articulate ta-boot! And of course, she seems to have the genius of which she speaks visit her often.

Though I watched this first before his death, I couldn't help instantly thinking of Ms. Gilbert's insights here when I heard of Michael Jackson's passing and as I've watched reports of his troubled life. I wish he'd had someone teach him to create this boundary to protect his fragile psyche from carrying the full responsibility of his artistic genius. Perhaps he'd still be with us.
