Of Gifts & Genius

I'm bumping this up to the top for my Monday Morning peeps to find-- it's Elizabeth Gilbert (of Eat, Pray, Love fame) speaking on the nature of 'genius'. I was reminded of this by a book I've begun reading called "The Gift" by Lewis Hyde (subtitled: Creativity & the Artist in the Modern World) which came highly praised by another group of artists.
And if you've never heard of the TEDtalks, another fascinating one is Jill Bolte Taylor's talk on lessons learned by surviving a stroke.
